We have that 48 students are in the band and that 24 out of them also play sport. Hence, in total 24 students are in the band but dont play sports. We have that there are 4 categories and we know the other 2 categories (do both, do none). There is a 4th category, only sports. We know that the sum of all those categories is 80 (since a student either does or does not a combination of those). Hence, 80=24+24+22+x. We have that x=10, hence 10 students play sports but are not in the band.
