Read Solution (Total 8)
-
- Valid votes = 5000 * 86/100 = 50*86 = 4300
Let no. of votes got by winner = x. Votes got by the other person = 4300 - x
x - (4300 - x) = 0.15 * 4300, x=2472.5 which is approximately 2473. - 9 years agoHelpfull: Yes(7) No(1)
- winner 2300
looser 2000
- 9 years agoHelpfull: Yes(4) No(2)
- valid votes=5000*86/100=4300
Winner got 15% more votes than loser=4300*15/100=645
so remaining votes i.e. 3655 are divided equally to two candidates.......1828 for winner and 1827 to loser
winner got votes=1828+645=2473 - 9 years agoHelpfull: Yes(3) No(1)
- Invalid vote for 5000*14/100=700.
Ans=2525
Valiad vote 4300..
Winning vote 5000*15/100=750
Half of the vote 2150 from valid vote. Winning vote half 375 so 2150+375=2525. - 9 years agoHelpfull: Yes(1) No(2)
- invalid vote is 14% so valid vote 84%
5000*84/100= 4300
margin 15% so
4300*15/100=645
half of the valid vote is 2150
so winner has 2150+645/2=2473 ans - 9 years agoHelpfull: Yes(1) No(2)
- 4300 votes are valid
X + 1.15X = 4300
X = 2000
1.15X = 2300 - 9 years agoHelpfull: Yes(1) No(0)
- Valid votes = 5000 * 86/100 = 50*86 = 4300
Let num of votes got by winner = w. Votes got by the other person = 4300 - w
w (4300 - w) = 0.15 * 4300, w=2472.5 which is approximately 2473. - 9 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
