Answer:

the no. of players are 5/12

Answer 2

Answer is 5/12

Step by step :

Let total no of player be X

So english players are 1 by 3 into 3 that is 1 by 3 x

Now Scottish player will be 1 by 4 of x that means 1 by 4 x

And for Welsh players X-(x by 3 + x by 4 )

x-(4x+3x/12)

x/1-7x/12

Rest are 5x by 12
