How Many Are Bare Feet?
Here comes today’s test. Below, we can see a picture.
The challenge is thus the following:
There are 12 kids in a classroom. 6 kids are wearing socks and 4 are wearing shoes. 3 kids are wearing both. How many are bare feet?
Can you come up with the answer? Think carefully, read the task a few times. We’ll show you the correct answer after the picture below.
A
B
C
Here is the correct answer
The correct answer is 5.
How do we get there?
As we know 3 kids are wearing both, So only 3 kids are wearing only socks(6 – 3 = 3) and 1 is wearing only shoes(4 – 3 = 1). So, in total 3 + 3 + 1 = 7. Now 12 are there, so 12 – 7 = 5. 5 kids are in bare feet.
Did you solve it on your own? Congratulations on that case!
