Answer:

45 students still have not given their speeches, while 30 have.

Explanation:

There are a total of 75 students

3/5 of the total number of students gave their speeches

To find how many students still have to give their speech, we will multiply

3/5 times 75 = 45

45 students still have not given their speeches.
