Answer:

85%

Step-by-step explanation:

1.  Divide 100 by the maximum amount of students to get the percent value for every student (5% per student)

2. Subtract the number of students you know plays neither sport, leaving you with 17 students.

3. Multiply the remaining students by the percent percent value. 17 * 5 = 85%

(This takes into account that some students are playing both sports.)
