I believe that would be 30
3/5 is 60% leaving 40% for the other languages
1/4 of 40% is 10% of those for German
that leaves 30% for the French

30%. 3/5 is 60%. and the question say 1/4 of the meaning which is 40%. so 1/4 of 40% is 10% which leaves 30% for the french

15%. because 3/5 is 60% and 1/4 is 25%. add them together and you have 85%. the remaining amount is 15%.
