Ik, I'm asking a lot of these but I HATE mathhhhh

Answer 1

75%

Explanation:

You need to find the total number of votes first. Just add 13 and 39 which would equal 52.

Then divide the number of people in favour by the total number of voters and multiply by a 100 to find the percentage.

39 + 13 = 52

39/52 = 0.75

0.75 x 100 = 75.0

75%
