    Answer: 48

    Step-by-step explanation:

    you start off with 100% of ants

    if 10% lose their way and 30% get eaten, the percent that comes back is

    100 - 10 - 30 = 60%

    so 60% of 80 is

    (0.6 * 80) = 48 ants

    so 48 ants come back

    30% + 10% = 40%

    40% = 0.40

    0.40 * 80 ants = 32 ants

    80 - 32 = 48

    48 ants came back
