There is a total of 25 students.

Given,

Number of students that have watched at least one of the movies = 20

Percentage of students that have watched neither of the movies = 20%

To Find,

The Total number of students in the class.

Solution,

Let the set of students who watched "The life of pi" be A.

Let the set of students who watched "Finding Nemo" be B.

Let the total number of students be x.

Then,

The number of students that did not watch any movie = 20*x / 100 = x/5

Then n(A∪B) = 20

And x - n(A∪B) = x/5

Putting the value of n(A∪B):

x - 20 = x/5

5x - 100 = x

4x = 100

x = 25

The total number of students is 25.
