The answer is 6 because 3/4 of 24 is 18 but since the questions says how many children are NOT playing soccer you have to subtract 18 from 24 which is 6. Hope this helps.

Answer:

18

Explanation:

To find the answer, multiply 24 by 3/4 or 0.75 to make it easier. 24 multiplied by 0.75 in a calculator is 18.
