## What do you think? Question:

Our condo association needs to  vote. To pass the vote, we need "at least 2/3 (66.67%) of the owners".  We are 11 owners. At first, the board and homeowners agreed on 8 owners (8/11=72%) but now, the lawyer says 7 (7/11=63.63%) is fine too (or 8 is fine too). Real number is 7.33. It is a critical number for a critical vote and 2 numbers seem fine. Any comments?
