Given data:
The total numbers of guests are n=24.
The given fraction of the guests that have cash gift is f=5/8.
The expression for the gift that are not in cash is,
[tex]g=(1-f)\times n[/tex]Substitute the given values in the above expression.
[tex]\begin{gathered} g=(1-\frac{5}{8})\times24 \\ =\frac{3}{8}\times24 \\ =9 \end{gathered}[/tex]Thus, the numbers of the gift that are not in cash is 9.
