An 80-member committee voted on whether to send a certain bill to the governing board. One-fourth voted in favor, 2/5 voted against, and the rest abstained. How many abstained?

Let's understand the concept:-Here the committee consists of 80membersFor finding the abstained we need to find first How many voted in favour and in against Required Answer :-

The number of members =80

One fourth voted in favour So first find how many voted in favour

20 members voted in favour Again two fifth voted against Find how many voted against

32 members voted against Now ,Rest members stayed abstained So we need to substract all voted members from the whole committee to get rest

28 members stay abstained.

Its d so thats how it would would back from 1.0 form three four two
