Answer:

As there are 80% people voted for building a new basketball court, it means that there is 20%(1-80%) of people who are against it.To calculate the numbers of people who against it= the totoal number of people who voted mutiply the percentage of people who vote against= 180x20%=36 people

Is that clear enough?
