Answer 1

Answer:

49%

Step-by-step explanation

Candidate A got votes= 153

Candidate B got votes=245

Candidate C got votes=102

Total numbers of votes caste the = the sum of three candidate receiving  votes

so, Total number of votes= 153+245+102= 500

but, here maximum votes receive among three candidates is by B i.e 245

so, the percentage of vote receive by candidate B = total vote receive by B/

                                                                                        total vote count    

percentage = (245/500) * 100    

                      49%
