Dave's sister baked 3 dozen pies of which half contained chocolate, two thirds contained marshmallows, three-fourths contained cayenne, and one-sixths contained salted soy nuts. What is the largest possible number of pies that had none of these ingredients?

36 (1-3/4) = 9 pies with none of ingredients is highest possible
