Question

In an election, there are a total of 80000 voters and there are two candidates, X and Y. 80 % of the voters go for polls out of which 60 % vote for X. How many votes does Y get?

Answer 1

The percentage of voters who went for the polls is 80% of 80000.
So the voters who went for the polls are
= 80/100 × 80000
= 8 × 8000
= 64000
Now or of 64000, 60% people voted for X. So X = 60/100 × 64000
= 60 × 640
= 38400
So the voters to Y will be
= 64000 - 38400
= 25600
Therefore, Y gets 25600 votes out of 64000.
