Answer:557 other songs

Step-by-step explanation:

Total number of song's in Alicia's MP3 player is 1260

35 percent of the songs are rock songs. This means that the number of songs that are rock songs is 35/100 * 1260 = 0.35*1260 = 441 rock songs.

20 percent of the songs are rap songs. This means that the total number of rap songs is 20/100 * 1260 = 0.2*1260 = 252

Total number of rock songs and rap songs is 441 + 252 = 693.

The number of songs that are other songs will be

1260 - 693 = 557 other songs
