Question

There are two candidates in a in an election the winner got 60% of the total votes and won the election by 144 votes find the total number of voters

Answer 1

let total vote = x

loose vote in %= (100-40)%

100x- 40x / 100 = 144

60x/ 100= 144

x = 144×100÷60

= 240

therefore total no of vote = 240
