20 students play soccer or basketball and 8 students play basketball, then 20-8=12 students play soccer.

Given that 1/3 of the students play soccer you can conclude that 1\3 is equal 12 student, then in class totally are 12*3=36 students.

36-20=16 students play neither soccer nor basketball

Answer: Correct choice is B.
