    So assuming that each student chose only one sport or 'other', add the percents and subtract from 100

    37.5+40=77.5

    100-77.5=22.5

    22.5%=other

    18 students=22.5%

    divide both sides by 22.5

    0.8=1%

    therfor

    100%=80

    80 students participated

    futbol=37.5% of 80=0.375 times 80=30

    30 picked football
