    200 students are neither in the band nor on any sports team

    Step-by-step explanation:

    To solve this problem we first have to calculate the students who play in the band and those who do sports

    To calculate the students who play in the band we have to calculate 30% of the total number of students

    30% = 30/100

    400 * 30/100 = 120

    120 students play in the band

    To calculate the students who do sport we have to multiply 1/5 by the total number of students

    400 * 1/5 = 80

    Now we have to subtract from the total the amount that they do sports or play in the band

    (400 - 80) - 120 = 200

    This means that 200 students are neither in the band nor on any sports team
