Answer 2

Answer:

The first answer is wrong.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that, in an election ,the votes cast for two candidates were in the ratio 6:11

Let the number of votes cast for candidates be 6x and 11x

Successful candidate means one who won the election i.e.one with higher votes.

So according to question, 11x=18755

x=18755

________=1705

11

Number of votes received by opponent candidate

=6x=6×1705=10230 votes

So,The correct Answer is (A)
