    Step-by-step explanation:

    Blue pants: 5

    Zipper pants: 6

    total amount of pants (blue, zipper or both) : 9

    to find the pants that have both qualities, we need to find the difference between the total amount of pants and the sum of the blue and zipper pants:

    sum of blue and zipper pants: 5 + 6 = 11

    you can tell that there is a difference of

    11 - 9 = 2 pants

    this means that these 2 pants belong to both categories (blue and with a zipper). Thus there are 2 pants that are blue and have a zipper
