Question

8% of the people eligible to vote are between 18 and 21. in an election 85% of those (between 18 and 21) in terms of total eligible voters?​

Answer 1

Answer:

let the number of persons eligible to vote be x. Then

Number of eligible persons between 18 and 21=8% of x.

Number of persons between 18 and 21, who voted = 85% of (8% of x)

85/100×8/100 x= 68/1000x

Required Percentage =68/1000x ×1÷x ×100=6.8
