ANSWER

The number who are not enrolled in either Chorus or Band is 53

Step-by-step explanation

The given information can be represented on a Venn diagram as shown above.

Let x represent the number of students who are not enrolled in either chorus or band.

Then


x + 14 + 10 + 23 = 100


x + 43 = 100

This implies that


x = 100 - 43


x = 57

The number who are not enrolled in either Chorus or Band is 53
