Aclass of 40 students elected a class president. there were 12 votes for candidate a, and 18 votes for candidate b. the remaining students in the class did not vote. which expression gives the percent of voters who voted for candidate a?

Hey You!

12/40 = Candidate A.

18/40 = Candidate B.

12 + 18 = 30

40 - 30 = 10

10/40 = Those who didn't vote.

ANSWER:

12 ÷ 40 = .3 (30%) So 30% voted for Candidate A.

18 ÷ 40 = .45 (45%) So 45% voted for Candidate B.

10 ÷ 40 = .25 (25%) So 25% didn't vote at all.
