Answer 1

Answer: 20

Step-by-step explanation: 75% of 80 is 60 so 80-60=20

Answer 2

The number of kids NOT wearing socks in the gym = 20

Explanation:

Here, the total number of kids in the gym = 80

Now, 75% of the kids are wearing socks.

Let us assume the number of kids wearing socks = m

⇒ 75 % of 80 = m

Calculating the value of m ,we get:

`(75)/(100)  * 80 = m\\\implies  m = 60`

⇒ 60 kids are wearing socks.

Kids not wearing socks = Total kids in gym - Kids wearing socks

= 80 - 60 = 20

Hence, the number of kids NOT wearing socks in the gym = 60.
