At a school carnival, a group of 47 students played the Fish Pond game At a school carnival, a group of 47 students played the Fish Pond game. Each student in the group won a prize. A stuffed animal was won by 24 students, a rubber ball was won by 7 students, and the rest of the students won a baseball cap. What fraction of the group won a baseball cap? We know that 31 out of 47 students won stuffed animals and rubber balls. We need to subtract 31 from 47 to find out how many students won baseball caps. 47 - 31 16
