Answer 1

Answer:

37,500

Step-by-step explanation:

Total vote = X

Rahul was supposed to be receiving = 3X/5

Amit was supposed to be receiving = 2X/5

As per the question 25% vote goes to Amit = 3X/5x25/100 = 3X/20

And 15% to Rahul = 2X/5x15/100 = 3X/50

Rahul's total vote = 3X/5-3X/20+3X/50

Amit's vote = 2X/5-3X/50+3X/20

Difference of the total vote obtained = Rahul -Amit

                                                     750 = 51X/100 - 49X/100

So, total number of votes = 37,500
