In a class of 35 students, 19 take history and
12 take economics. If 5 take both subjects,
how many take neither?​


Sagot :

Answer: 9

Step-by-step explanation:

If 19 students take history, 12 take economics and 5 take both:

19-5 = 14 students that take only history

12-5 = 7 students that take only economics

Therefore total number of students who either history, economics or history and economics: 14 + 7 + 5 = 26

Therefore students who take neither: 35 - 26 = 9
