20% of 860 Songs are Rap,


= (20)/(100) * 860 \\ = (1)/(5) * 860 \\ = 172 \: songs.

15% of Songs are R&B,


= (15)/(100) * 860 \\ = (3)/(20) * 860 \\ = (3)/(2) * 86 \\ = 3 * 43 \\ = 129 \: songs.

860-(Rap+R&B) = Other Types.
860-(172+129) = Others
860-301 = Others
559 = Others.

There are 559 some of other types.

!! Hope It Helps !!
