Of the 75 houses in a certain community, 48 have a patio. How many of the houses in the community have a swimming pool?
(1) 38 of the houses in the community have a patio but do not have a swimming pool. (2) The number of houses in the community that have a patio and a swimming pool is equal to the number of houses in the community that have neither a swimming pool nor a patio. (B) 根据题目假设have a patio为P,have a swimming pool为S,have a patio and a swimming pool 为X,have neither a swimming pool nor a patio为Y。 然后列式:P+S-X+Y=75. 然后根据(2)知道X,Y相等。所以可以把X,Y相抵。 则可以知道:S=75-P=75-48=27. |
