Answer:
300 votes
Step-by-step explanation:
Total votes scored by (A+B+C) = 2000
Votes scored by (A+C) = 1500
Votes scored by (B+C) = 800
Now, votes scored by B alone = (A+B+C) - (A+C)
= 2000 - 1500
= 500 votes
Votes scored by A alone = (A+B+C) - (B+C)
= 2000 - 800
= 1200 votes
Now, according to the question,
Votes scored by C alone = 2000 - (1200 + 500)
= 2000 - 1700
= 300 votes
Therefore, candidate C scored 300 votes.
