#Total=T=32
#Music=M=15
#Dance=D=20
10 students are in neither clubs, so total students in Music or Dance = T-10 =32-10 =22
Students in M&D=15+20-22 =13
So, students in music alone=15-13 =2 and students in dance alone=20-13=7
So students in only one of the clubs (does not matter which one) = 2+7 =9 (B)
