Answer:

Disagree... because it's only one out of five that was realized to make the statement

So ,4 out of five didn't do it.

So majority carries the vote.

Step-by-step explanation:

A majority vote, or more than half the votes cast, is a common voting basis. Instead of the basis of a majority, a supermajority can be specified using any fraction or percentage which is greater than one-half (50%). It can also be called a qualified majority.

In this case ..the percentage of the opposite ignore than 78% so it's the majority
