Sure, let's break down the problem step-by-step to find out how many goals were not scored by Pedro.
1. We know that Pedro scored [tex]\(\frac{1}{4}\)[/tex] of the total goals during the soccer game.
2. Pedro scored 2 goals.
First, let's determine the total number of goals scored in the game.
If Pedro's 2 goals represent [tex]\(\frac{1}{4}\)[/tex] of the total goals, we can set up the equation:
[tex]\[
\frac{1}{4} \text{ of total goals} = 2 \text{ goals}
\][/tex]
To find the total number of goals, we need to divide the 2 goals by [tex]\(\frac{1}{4}\)[/tex]:
[tex]\[
\text{Total goals} = 2 \times 4 = 8
\][/tex]
So, the total number of goals scored in the game is 8.
Next, we need to find out how many of those goals were scored by players other than Pedro.
If Pedro scored 2 of the 8 goals, then the number of goals not scored by Pedro is:
[tex]\[
\text{Goals not scored by Pedro} = \text{Total goals} - \text{Goals scored by Pedro}
\][/tex]
[tex]\[
\text{Goals not scored by Pedro} = 8 - 2 = 6
\][/tex]
Therefore, the number of goals that were not scored by Pedro is 6.
