Answer:

5 play Football & Baseball; 22 don't play Football; 11 don't play baseball; 20 don't play either football or baseball. See captures attached. The missing one in your original answer + the one made in Excel.

Explanation:

If you fill out the blanks the way explained in the answer, you can prove that the 3 sentences match perfectly. The sum of all of them totals 58.

1. Thirty-one of them said they do not play baseball.

2. Sixteen of them said they play football.

3. Twenty of them said they do not play baseball or football.

By the way, as I mentioned before, I also attached the missing image in your original question.

Have a great day!
