    Hi gwynn I think the answer is 2 because I know that 17+15=2 From your classmate Leatham

    Hi Gwynn,

    What an excellent maths problem. I agree with Leathem that the answer is 2 but this is how you'd work out the answer. If there are 17 boys in the rugby team and we take away 15 because they are on the field then that leaves us 2 boys waiting for a turn.

    17 - 15 = 2
