Question

In a election, candidate X received 1/3 more votes than Y. Candidate Y received 1/4 fewer votes than Z. If candidate Z received 2400 vote, how many vote did candidate X receive?

Answer 1

Answer:

candidate x- 1/3 more votes than y

candidate y- 1/4 less voted than z

candidate z- 2400

Step-by-step explanation:

So, for candidate z

=1/4 of 2400

=1/4*2400

=600

2400-600

=1800

for candidate y

=1/3 of 1800

=1/3*1800

=600

1800+600

=2400
