Answer: There are 32 students who like brussels sprouts but dislike beans.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Number of students eat in the cafeteria = 120

Fraction dislike lime beans = \dfrac{2}{3}

Fraction who dislike lime beans and brussles sprouts both = \dfrac{2}{3}\times \dfrac{3}{5}

Fraction who dislikes lime beans but not brussles is given by

\dfrac{2}{3}(1-\dfrac{3}{5})\\\\=\dfrac{2}{3}\times \dfrac{2}{5}\\\\=\dfrac{4}{15}

So, Number of students who like brussels sprouts but dislike lima beans is given by

\dfrac{4}{15}\times 120\\\\=32

Hence, there are 32 students who like brussels sprouts but dislike beans.
