Given : Kim was elected class president. she received 3 votes for every 2 that Amy got .No one else ran .
if 8 of the people who voted for Kim had voted for Amy instead, Kim would have received only 1 vote for every 2
To Find : How many people voted.
Solution:
Kim received = 3A
Amy received = 2A
Total Votes = 5A
if 8 of the people who voted for Kim had voted for Amy instead
=> Kim Received = 3A - 8
Amy Received = 2A + 8
Kim would have received only 1 vote for every 2
=> 3A - 8 : 2A + 8 = 1 : 2
=> 6A - 16 = 2A + 8
=> 4A = 24
=> A = 6
Total People Voted = 5A = 30
30 People voted
