Step-by-step explanation:

LET THE TOTAL ELECTRODE BE X

60% OF X = 48000

 \frac{60}{100}  \times x = 48000 \\  \frac{3}{5}  \times x = 48000 \\ x = 48000 \div  \frac{3}{5}  \\ x = 48000 \times  \frac{5}{3}  \\  x= 16000 \times 5 \\ x = 80000

SO THE TOTAL ELECTRODE IS 80000

SECOND CANDIDATE GET 25% VOTE

25 % OF 80000

IS = 20000
