  let they work for m  mornings and for e evenings
Given 
   m+e=22;

m+m'=total number of days=e+e'=x;

   x=22-(x-12)+24;
   
hence total days =29

RE: Joe and Mathew go on vacation to their grandparent...

Both the guys were on vacation for 24 days They were only played football for 22 times in the evening out of 24 days and not played football on 12th eve .They have probably left grandfather house on 24th morning so that is way they haven't played football on that day .

They have not done yoga at all .
