Step-by-step explanation:

In a certain city, 60 percent of the registered voters are congress supporters and the rest are bjp supporters. In an assembly election, if 75 percent of the registered congress supporters and 20 percent of the registered bjp supporters are expected to vote for candidate a, what percent of the registered voters are expected to vote for candidate a ?

Let say Registered Voter == V

Congress Supporters = (60/100)V = 0.6V

BJP supporters = V - 06V = 0.4V

Vote To candiadte a =  (75/100)0.6V  + (20/100)0.4V

= 0.45V + 0.08V

= 0.53V

percent of the registered voters are expected to vote for candidate a

= (0.53V/V) * 100 = 53 %
