How many children did not try any of the rides?
Explanation:
Let x, y and z be the number of children who took 1 rides, 2 rides and 3 rides respectively.
Since z = 20 and y + z = 55, y = 35.
Then, total number of rides = x + 2y + 3z = 145 ⇒ x + 2 × 35 + 3 × 20 = 145 ⇒ x = 15
Number of children, who did not try any of the rides = 85 – (x + y + z) = 85 – (15 + 35 + 20) = 15
Hence, option (c).
