    242 members voted in favor while 193 members voted against

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Let those that voted against be x will those in favor will be (x+49)

    Since today number of voters is 435

    To find x

    X + (x+49) = 435

    2x + 49 = 435

    2x = 435 - 49

    2x = 386

    X = 386/2

    X = 193

    Therefore, those against is 193 while this in favor is 193+49 = 242
