To find the number of musicians in the marching band, we need to subtract the number of musicians in the jazz band and the number of musicians who play in both from the total number of musicians.

Total - Jazz band - Both = Marching band
375 - 250 - 130 = Marching band
375 - 380 = Marching band
-5 = Marching band

There seems to be an error in the given information. The number of musicians in the marching band cannot be negative.

To find the number of musicians in the marching band, we need to subtract the number of musicians who play in both from the total number of musicians in the jazz band.

Number of musicians in the marching band = Total number of musicians in the jazz band - Number of musicians who play in both
Number of musicians in the marching band = 250 - 130 = 120

Therefore, there are 120 musicians in the marching band.
