To get the answer you must calculate 40% of 500 and 60% of 500 to see how many students for each candidate. To calculate the number of students who voted for Kellen you must multiply 40 by 500 an divide by 100.
40•500:100= 200.
Then you do the same with Robbie.
60•500:100= 300.
So 200 people voted for Kellen and 300 people voted for Robbie.
So the answer is that 100 more people voted for Robbie than for Kellen.
PEMDAS. parenthesis, exponents, multiple or divide (whichever come first from left to right), add or subtract (whichever comes first from left to right)
So first do stuff in parenthesis. Then do divide because thats next on the list and it happens earlier than the multiply one.
