Answer and explanation

Correct answer: 12

The 24 football players include the 12 students who play both football and cricket. Therefore, the number who play football only is found by subtracting the intersection: 24 − 12 = 12. The value 20 is the number who play cricket only, calculated as 32 − 12. Thus only football corresponds to option A.
