To find the missing number in the table, let's analyze the data provided step-by-step:

1. Identify the total number of students who like gardening: According to the table, this number is 58.
2. Identify the number of students who like both gardening and reading: This number is given as 32 in the intersection of the "Like Reading" and "Like Gardening" cells.
3. Determine the missing number: The missing number represents the students who like gardening but do not like reading.

We can find it by subtracting the number of students who like both gardening and reading from the total number of students who like gardening:
[tex]\[ 58 - 32 = 26 \][/tex]

So, the missing number of students who like gardening but do not like reading is 26.

Hence, 26 should fill the missing cell in the table.
