Answer:

Answer: 420 members don't have blue eyes

Explanation:

First, you can find the total amount of players in the football club by setting a ratio --> 140/x = 25/100 (since the members with blue eyes make up 25% of the club). Once you solve for x in the ratio, you will get 560 which is the total amount of members in the club. Since all the other members other than the 140 don't have blue eyes, then you can simply do 560-140 and you will get 420. Hope this helps :)
