Answer:

442 people named neither blue nor red.

Step-by-step explanation:

Givens:

  • [tex]\frac{3}{7}[/tex] people named blue.
  • [tex]\frac{1}{6}[/tex] people named red.
  • The total number of people is 1092

So, we first have to calculate the number of people that named blue and red.

[tex]\frac{3}{7}1092=468\\\frac{1}{6}1092=182[/tex]

This means that 468+182=650 people named blue or red.

If we find the difference between 650 and 1092, we would have the total number of people that didn't named blue nor red.

1092-650=442.

Therefore, 442 people named neither blue nor red.
