Answer 1

The answer is correct above me

Answer 2

Part 1) 30%

Part 2) 80 students

Part 3) 57 votes

Part 4) LaToya

Explanation:

75 divided by 250 = 0.30 = 30%

32% = 0.32 and then 0.32 times 250 = 80 students

250 - 75 - 80 = 95 students that didn't vote for Carlos or LaToya. Then 0.60 times 95 = 57

LaToya had 80 votes, the most votes.
