Solution

To find out how many students play only basketball, you need to subtract the number of students who play both sports from the total number of students who play basketball.

Here are the steps:

  1. Start with the total number of students who play basketball, which is 18.
  2. Then subtract the number of students who play both sports, which is 8.

So, 18 (students who play basketball) - 8 (students who play both) = 10.

Therefore, 10 students play only basketball.
