Question

Q. In an election, A got 40% of the votes and B got 60% of the votes . if B wins the election by 6639 votes , find the total number of votes polled in the election. ​

Answer 1

Answer:

33195

Step-by-step explanation:

let total no. of votes be x

then, 60% of x- 40% of x=6639

taking x common,

((60/100)-(40/100)) * x =6639

x/5=6639

x=33195

Answer 2

Answer:

A=40%

B=60%

total no.of votes=x

(60-40)% of x=6639

20% of x=6639

(20/100)*x=6639

x=6639*(100/20)

x=6639*5

x=33195
