On Halloween 18 pirates came to my door to trick or treat. 9 of the pirates had cutlasses 11 of the pirates had eyepatches 3 of the pirates neither cutlasses nor eye patches. How many pirates had both cutlasses and eye patches?

Respuesta :

Answer:

9

Step-by-step explanation:

Well since 11 of the pirates had eyepatches, and 11 is greater than 9, all 9 of the pirates that had cutlasses had eyepatches as well. I don't know if this is completely correct but it's the only thing that makes sense to me.
