Answer 1

Percentage of votes polled for winning candidate = 54%

Percentage of votes polled for defeated candidate = 46%

Percentage majority = 54 - 46 = 8%

Let the number of valid votes be 'x'.

8% of x = 1620

8/100 × x = 1620

x = 1620 × 100/8

x = 20250

So, the number of valid votes are 20250.
