Consider the following information and answer the questions based on it.
Out of 200 kids, 20 wanted to see only the galaxy, 25 wanted to see only stars, 30 wanted to see only planets, 50 wanted to see stars, planets and moon, 25 wanted to see both moon and galaxy, 25 wanted to see only moon and the remaining did not want to see anything.
In all, how many kids did not want to see the galaxy?
100
From the passage, the kids who did NOT want to see the galaxy are those whose preferences involve only stars, planets or the moon in combinations that exclude the galaxy.
Add these groups: 50 who wanted stars-planets-moon (no galaxy), 25 who wanted both moon and galaxy excluded sets, and 25 who wanted only moon.
The total of these galaxy-excluding groups equals $50 + 25 + 25 = 100$.
Hence, 100.
