Final Answer: 277 people had scarves.

Explanation:

  • 1/2 people wore hats
  • 2/3 people wore also wore gloves.
  • 1/4 people wore scarves.
  • 25 people had hats and scarves. (no gloves)
  • 100 people have only scarves.
  • 1824 people total

1824 / 2 = 912 (Divide by 2 to get the people wearing hats)

912 / 3 = 304 (subtract 304 to get 2/3)

912-304 = 608

608/4 = 152. (people who wore gloves, hats, and scarves.)

152+100+25= 277
