Question

In an election a candidate is ko 45% and lost by 120 words what is the total number of votes

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Ok so Candidate A got 44% of the votes and lost by 120 votes

Then Candidate B got 100% - 45% = 55% votes

55% votes = 45% +120

55% - 45% = 10%

So 10% = 120

1% = 120÷10 = 12

100% votes = 12 × 100 = 1200

Ans =1200 is the total number of votes
