Carl, Gilda, Conroy, and Kyla are the four candidates in a school election. Carl received of the votes, Gilda received 15% of the votes, and Conroy received of the votes. If Kyla received all of the remaining votes, what percentage of the votes did she receive?

A) 45%

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is incomplete. The complete question is

Carl, Gilda, Conroy, and Kyla are the four candidates in a school election. Carl received 1/5 of the votes, Gilda received 10% of the votes, and Conroy received 1/4 of the votes. If Kyla received all of the remaining votes, what percentage of the votes did she receive? A. 45\% B. 55\% C. 20\% D. 50\%

Solution:

The total percentage of the votes that is spread among the 4 contestants is 100%

Carl received 1/5 of the votes. It means that the percentage of votes that Carl received is

1/5 × 100 = 20%

Gilda received 10% of the votes.

Conroy received 1/4 of the votes. It means that the percentage of the votes that Conroy received is

1/4 × 100 = 25%

Therefore, if Kyla received all of the remaining votes, then the percentage of the votes that she received is

100 - (20 + 10 + 25) = 45%
