Answer 2

Answer:

Given: three candidates A B and C in the school election got 153 and 245 and 102 votes respectively

To find: the percentage of votes got by the winner

Step-by-step explanation:

Total vote casted in the election of school = 153+ 245 + 102

Total number of votes = 500

% of votes for winner = number of votes that winner got / Total number of votes casted * 100

Number of votes Winner got = 245 candidate B vote

Now the total percentage of votes got by the winner = 245/ 500 * 100

245/5 = 49%

Hence, the percentage of votes got by the winner is 49%.
