There are 75 people in a room. Of these people, 2/5 are from Germany. If 4/9 of the people who are not from Germany are from France, how many of the people in the room are from neither Germany nor France

25 people are not from Germany or France.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. You first want find out what is the number of people from Germany.

So you would find...

2/5 of 75

or

2/5*75= 30 people from Germany

2. Next you want to to find out the number of people from France.

So you would do the following...

75-30=45 (Subtract the number of people from Germany from 75 so you can get the total number of people from France and other countries)

4/9 of 45 to find the number of people from France.

4/9 *45= 20

3. Lastly you need to find the people who are from neither of the countries listed above.

Add 30+20= 50

Then subtract that number from 75.

75-50= 25 people who are from neither France or Germany.

Voila! This is your answer. Hope this helps! :)
