The number of days Carole did not work is 28 - 14 = <<28-14=14>>14 days.
Carole worked at the restaurant for 14 - 14 = 0 days.
Therefore, the answer is D) 0.
To find out how many days Carole worked at the restaurant during the 28-day period, we need to subtract the days she worked at the bookstore and the days she did not work from the total number of days (28).
Days Carole worked at the bookstore = 14
Days Carole did not work = 114
Total days - Days at the bookstore - Days not worked = Days at the restaurant
28 - 14 - 114 = Days at the restaurant
28 - 128 = Days at the restaurant
-100 = Days at the restaurant
Since a negative number of days doesn't make sense, we can conclude that Carole did not work at the restaurant during the 28-day period.
Therefore, the answer is D) 0
To find out how many days Carole worked at the restaurant during the 28-day period, we need to first calculate how many days Carole did not work at the bookstore.
Carole worked 14 days at the bookstore, so the number of days she did not work at the bookstore is 28 - 14 = 14.
Next, we need to subtract the number of days Carole did not work from the total number of days in the period to find out how many days she worked at the restaurant. Since Carole did not work 114 days, and she did not work 14 days at the bookstore, the total number of days she did not work is 114 + 14 = 128.
Now, we can calculate the number of days Carole worked at the restaurant. It is the difference between the total number of days in the period and the number of days she did not work: 28 - 128 = -100.
Since the result is negative, we can conclude that Carole did not work at the restaurant during the 28-day period. Therefore, the answer is D: 0.
