Step-by-step explanation:
No. of voters who casrs their votes=60%of80500=48300.
And,
Let.candidate A get x votes.
Then, the candidate B gets x+2600 votes.
Now, x+(x+2600)=48300
2x+2600=48300
2x=(48300-2600)=45700
X=45700/2=22850
So,the% of votes secured by A=22850/48300*100=43.30% (approx)
And, B secures (100-43.30)%=66.70%.
