    Solution

    Total number of students = 100 Number of students who play Rugby = 55% of 100 = 55 Number of students who play Basketball = 30% of 100 = 30 Number of students who play both the games = 15% of 100 = 15 Number of students who play neither rugby nor basketball = 100 – (55 + 30 – 15) = 100 – 70 = 30
