Question

9. Out of 1,500 voters in a constituency, 60% voted. Find the percentage who did not vote
Can you find how many voters actually did not vote?​

Answer 1

Answer:

40% and members are 600

Answer 2

$\frac{60}{100} \times 1500 \\ \\ = 60 \times 15 \\ \\= 900$

900 voters voted

1500 - 900 = 600 voters did not voted

Therefore, 600 voters did not vote

Always remember

$\frac{x\%}{100} \times total \: = percentage \: in \: numbers$
