Hi,
5/8 of the votes were for blue
5/9 of the remaining votes were for green 
&#8658; 4/9 of the remaining = 48(red) &#8658; remaining ={{{48(9/4) = 108}}}
and the remaining 48 votes were for red.
{{{V - (5/8)V = 108}}}
{{{(3/8)V = 108}}}
 V = {{{108(8/3)}}} = 288 Total votes
How many votes were for blue? {{{(5/8)288 = 180}}}
 How many votes were for green? {{{108-48 = 60}}}
 If 25 of the students were absent, how many students were in the class?
