How many boys brought gifts? ** 16 x 3/4 = <<16*3/4=12>>12 boys brought gifts.
How many boys did not bring gifts? ** So, 16 -12 = <<16-12=4>>4 boys did not bring gifts.
How many girls brought gifts? ** 14 x 6/7 = <<14*6/7=12>>12 girls brought gifts.
How many girls did not bring gifts? ** So, 14 - 12 = <<14-12=2>>2 girls did not bring gifts.
How many of those who attended did not bring gifts? ** Therefore, a total of 4 boys + 2 girls = <<4+2=6>>6 people did not bring gifts.
