No. of votes of winning candidate = 320000 = 40%
Total no. of voters = 320000 x 100/40
= 32000000/40
= 800000
No. of votes of opponent candidate = 800000 x 24/100
= 19200000/100
= 192000
Total no. of people who voted = 320000 + 192000
= 512000
Total no. of people who did not vote = 800000 - 512000
= 288000
