Answer:

102 ; 357 ; 238 ; 153

Explanation:

Given that:

Total number of students in Southbrook middle school:

12% of students do not participate:

Number of students who do not participate :

(12/100) * 850

0.12 * 850 = 102

Only one sport = 42%

Percentage of students = 42%

Total number of students = 850

0.42 * 850 = 357 students

Two sports = 28%

Percentage of students = 28%

Total number of students = 850

0.28 * 850 = 238 students

Three or more sports:

Percentage of students = 18%

Total number of students = 850

0.18 * 850 = 153
