Hi there!

»»————- ★ ————-««

I believe your answer is:

4 students.

»»————- ★ ————-««

Here’s why:

  • Out of the 30 students, 1/3 of them play any type of sport.

⸻⸻⸻⸻


30 * (1)/(3) =10

⸻⸻⸻⸻

  • 10 out of 30 students play sports. We need to find (2/5) of that for the people that play soccer.

⸻⸻⸻⸻


10 * (2/5) = 4

⸻⸻⸻⸻

  • Four students play soccer.

Hope this helps you. I apologize if it’s incorrect.
