    Answer:

    Let’s say he stopped 19 people on Wednesday.

    Wed – 19 people stopped

    Tues – 19-12 is 7, so he saved 7 people that day

    Mon – 19-7 is 12. so 12 people stopped on monday

    so in all (including Wednesday) he stopped 38 people

    Step-by-step explanation:

    I’m sorry if it’s wrong
