To fill in the missing values, let's break down the information we have and do some calculations.
1. **Total number of adults surveyed**: 63
2. **Number of adults preferring electronic books**: 37
3. **Total number of people (adults and youths) surveyed**: 127
4. **Total number of people preferring electronic books**: 71
From the information given, we can find the following:
### Step 1: Number of adults preferring paper books
Since there are 63 adults surveyed and 37 of them prefer electronic books:
- Adults preferring paper books = Total adults surveyed - Adults preferring electronic books
- Adults preferring paper books = 63 - 37 = **26 adults**
### Step 2: Total number of youths surveyed
To find the total number of youths surveyed, we can subtract the number of adults surveyed from the total number of people surveyed:
- Total youths surveyed = Total surveyed - Total adults surveyed
- Total youths surveyed = 127 - 63 = **64 youths**
### Step 3: Total number of youths preferring electronic books
We know that a total of 71 people prefer electronic books (both adults and youths). We already found that 37 adults prefer electronic books, so:
- Youths preferring electronic books = Total preferring electronic books - Adults preferring electronic books
- Youths preferring electronic books = 71 - 37 = **34 youths**
### Step 4: Number of youths preferring paper books
To find the number of youths who prefer paper books, we can take the total number of youths surveyed and subtract the number of youths who prefer electronic books:
- Youths preferring paper books = Total youths surveyed - Youths preferring electronic books
- Youths preferring paper books = 64 - 34 = **30 youths**
### Summary of Results
- **Adults preferring paper books**: 26
- **Adults preferring electronic books**: 37
- **Youths preferring paper books**: 30
- **Youths preferring electronic books**: 34
So, the filled-in values are:
- Adults preferring paper books: **26**
- Youths preferring electronic books: **34**
- Youths preferring paper books: **30**
1. **Total number of adults surveyed**: 63
2. **Number of adults preferring electronic books**: 37
3. **Total number of people (adults and youths) surveyed**: 127
4. **Total number of people preferring electronic books**: 71
From the information given, we can find the following:
### Step 1: Number of adults preferring paper books
Since there are 63 adults surveyed and 37 of them prefer electronic books:
- Adults preferring paper books = Total adults surveyed - Adults preferring electronic books
- Adults preferring paper books = 63 - 37 = **26 adults**
### Step 2: Total number of youths surveyed
To find the total number of youths surveyed, we can subtract the number of adults surveyed from the total number of people surveyed:
- Total youths surveyed = Total surveyed - Total adults surveyed
- Total youths surveyed = 127 - 63 = **64 youths**
### Step 3: Total number of youths preferring electronic books
We know that a total of 71 people prefer electronic books (both adults and youths). We already found that 37 adults prefer electronic books, so:
- Youths preferring electronic books = Total preferring electronic books - Adults preferring electronic books
- Youths preferring electronic books = 71 - 37 = **34 youths**
### Step 4: Number of youths preferring paper books
To find the number of youths who prefer paper books, we can take the total number of youths surveyed and subtract the number of youths who prefer electronic books:
- Youths preferring paper books = Total youths surveyed - Youths preferring electronic books
- Youths preferring paper books = 64 - 34 = **30 youths**
### Summary of Results
- **Adults preferring paper books**: 26
- **Adults preferring electronic books**: 37
- **Youths preferring paper books**: 30
- **Youths preferring electronic books**: 34
So, the filled-in values are:
- Adults preferring paper books: **26**
- Youths preferring electronic books: **34**
- Youths preferring paper books: **30**
