Question

In an election Ravi got 35% of the total votes. If the number of votes he got were 1750, find the number of votes his opponent got ?​

Answer 1

Answer:

3250

Step-by-step explanation:

let the total number of votes= x

total number of votes Ravi got=1750 or 35%of x

According To the Question

35% of x = 1750

$35 \div 100 \times x = 1750$

$7 \div 20 \times x = 1750$

$7x \div 20 = 1750$

$7x = 1750 \times 20$

$7x = 35000$

$x = 35000 \div 7$

$x = 5000$

Total votes= 5000

No. of votes his opponent get=5000-1750=3250
