in a school of 464 students 89 students are in the band, 215 students are on a sports team, and 31 students do both activities. How many students are not involed in eaither sport?

1 answer

To find the number of students who are not involved in either activity, you need to subtract the number of students in the band and on a sports team from the total number of students, then add the number of students who do both activities:

Total number of students = 464
Number of students in both band and sports = 31
Number of students in band only = 89 - 31 = 58
Number of students on sports team only = 215 - 31 = 184

Therefore, the number of students who are not involved in either activity is:

464 - (31 + 58 + 184) = 191 students.

So there are 191 students who are not involved in either sport.
