Answer:
15
Step-by-step explanation:
For these kind of problems, its best to use a Venn Diagram.
Lets break down the information:
<em>There are 50 students total.</em>
<em>25 take Math competiton classes.</em>
<em>29 take Geometry</em>
<em>12 take history and </em><em><u>no math classes</u></em>
<em>19 take </em><em><u>both math classes</u></em>
Now, make a Venn Diagram.
[Look at the photo attached. Also, the blank spaces in the Venn Diagram are ones that no student takes.]
The 12 taking history and no math classes and 3 kids not taking any of those classes look like they're the only ones not taking either math class.
12 + 3 = 15.
So the answer is 15.
