Answer:
80 students
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number of voters in the election for class president is x.
So, given that 40% of the voters voted for Gerardo,35% of the voters voted for Leonardo, and 25% of the voters voted for Juju.
So, the number of voters for Leonardo was [tex]x \times \frac{35}{100} = 0.35x[/tex]
Given that, 0.35x = 70
⇒ x = 200
Now, the number of voters for Gerardo was [tex](x \times \frac{40}{100}) = 0.4x = 0.4(200) = 80[/tex].
