The answer is 75 and here's why.
Let's figure out the amount of remaining votes to prove this.
250 total votes - 150 votes for candidate a = 100 votes.
minus ↑ sign
Candidate B received 25% of the votes, so let's find<u> 25% of 100</u>
<u>100 * 0.25 = 25 votes</u>
Candidate B only got 25 votes (that's kinda sad, poor guy)
<u>100 - 25 votes = the # of votes candidate C got </u>
Candidate C got 75 votes!
The correct answer is: [C]: " -5 ΙxΙ = 25 " .
______________________________________________
In this answer choice, when you divide each side by "-5" ;
you get: " ΙxΙ = -5 ;
If x = 5, the result is "5" ; NOT "-5" .
If x = -5, the result is "5" ; NOT "-5" .
The "absolute value" of a value is always "zero" or greater.
