Question

in election, there were only two candidates.winer got 53per cent voters and won by 9600 votes. find the total number of vote polled.

Answer 1

winner got 53percent so losing candidate got
$100 - 53 = 47$
47 per cent. Then winner got
$53 - 47 = 6$
6 percent more so that means
let total vote be x so
6percent of x equal to 9600
$\frac{6}{100} \times x = 9600$
$x = \frac{9600 \times 100}{6}$
$x = 1600 \times 100$
