To determine how many students do not like banana peppers on their pizza, we need to subtract the number of students who like both pepperoni and banana peppers from the total number of students who like banana peppers.

Let's break down the information given in the problem:

- Number of students who like pepperoni pizza: 25
- Number of students who like banana peppers pizza: 31
- Number of students who like both pepperoni and banana peppers: 5
- Total number of students surveyed: 66

To find the number of students who like only banana peppers, we can subtract the number of students who like both from the total number of students who like banana peppers:

31 (students who like banana peppers) - 5 (students who like both) = 26 students who like only banana peppers

Now, to find the number of students who do not like banana peppers, we subtract the number of students who like banana peppers (including both toppings) from the total number of students surveyed:

66 (total students surveyed) - 31 (students who like banana peppers) = 35 students who do not like banana peppers

Therefore, the correct answer is D. 35.

it's A.20

you forgot the vie that like both banana peppers and pepporoni pizza so 66-36=30
