Results of a survey of fifty students indicate that 30 like red jelly beans, 29 like green jelly beans, and 17 like
both red and green jelly beans. How many of the students surveyed like no green jelly beans?
Which of those 3 results say they don't like the green ones?
Sorry...misread these.
There are 50 students that are in the class. Let me rethink this one.
30
To find out how many students surveyed like no green jelly beans, we need to subtract the number of students who like both red and green jelly beans from the total number of students who like green jelly beans.
Given that 29 students like green jelly beans and 17 students like both red and green jelly beans, we can subtract 17 from 29 to find the number of students who like only green jelly beans.
29 - 17 = 12
Therefore, 12 students like only green jelly beans.
