Question

In a election there were 2 candidates A and B who contested.A got 72% of vote and won a majority of 13200 votes.find the total votes?​

Answer 1

Answer:

72%-100%=28

72%-28%=44%

13200=44%

13200/44=300

1%=300

100%of votes is300×100=30000

Answer 2

A got 72 %

B got 100-72 = 28 %

To find - Total Votes

Let x be Votes of B

Solution -

x = 72/28 = 13200/x

By cross Multiplying,

72*x = 13200*28

72x = 369600

x = 369600/72

x = 5133

Thus, B Votes are 5133

Total Votes = A+B

=13200+5133

= 18333

Thus,Total Votes are 18333
