Question

the 90 members of a service Club had the opportunity to vote for a club officers on Tuesday or Wednesday 3/5 of the members vote on Tuesday 1/4 of the members who did not vote on Tuesday voted on Wednesday how many of the members did not vote at all

Answer 1

Hello!

First, we must divide the number of members of the service club (90) by 5 and then multiply that by 3 to find out how many of the 3/5 people voted:

90 ÷ 5 = 18

18 × 3 = 54

So, 54 members voted on Wednesday.

90 - 54 = 36

36 ÷ 4 = 9

9 members voted on Tuesday.

54 + 9 = 63

90 - 63 = 27

A N S W E R:

27 members did NOT vote at all.

Answer 2

For this problem, it is really important to find who voted on Tuesday first.
90×(3/5)= 54 
54 people voted on Tuesday. Since the people who voted on Wednesday was 1/4 of the members who did not vote on Tuesday.
90-54=36×(1/4)=9
9 people voted on Wednesday. Now add Tuesday and Wednesday together to find the ones that didn't vote.
54+9=63;90-63=27
27 people did not vote at all.
