Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 40 people in the group.

1/2 said white; therefore 1/2 left(1–1/2).

1/4 said black; therefore 1/4 left(1/2–1/4).

1/8 said red; therefore 1/8 left(1/4–1/8).

the rest said blue =5=1/8.

lhs=5======rhs=1/8.

therefore if 1/8=5 implies that 1 = 40 total number of people in the group.

now=

white=20.

black=10.

red=5.

blue=5.
