    120 people

    40% of 200 is 80

    200-80=120

    so 120 people voted against the basketball court

    Percentage of people who voted for building a new basketball court in the park=40%

    Percentage of people who voted against building the new basketball court in the park=total percentage-percentage of people who voted to build the basketball court

    100%-40%=60%

    now, ATQ ...

    60% of 200

    60/100*200=120
