Answer 1

Answer:

soccer = 18

batminton = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

let no.if student play soccer be X

so ,we know that

the student play soccer 3 times than batminton

the student who plays both soccer and batminton is 12

so we divide we 12 into 2 soccer and batminton so each student play 6 soccer and 6 batminton

so we take

soccer = a

batminton = b

so equation is

a*3+b. (b=6,c = 6)

6*3+6

18+6

so we got

a=soccer=18

b=batminton=6. ANSWER
