3. In a city 100% votes are registered, in which 60% vote for congress and 40% vote for BJP. There is a person A, who gets 75% of congress
votes and 8% of BJP votes. How many votes got by A?

• let total votes =100
  congress votes=0.75(60)=45
  Bjp =0.08(40)=3(approx)
  total votes he gained=45+3=48

• Let total votes be x
  So, Votes of Congress(C) = (60/100)x
  and, Votes of Bjp(B) = (40/100)x
  As, given A got 75% of (C) votes and 8% of (B) votes...
  So, Number of votes of A = (75/100)*(60/100)x + (8/100)*(40/100)x
  = (0.482)x
  Now, Percentage of votes = [(0.482x)/x]*100
  = 48.2%

• answer= (0.75*60)+(0.08*40)
  = 48

• let total 100 voters
  then 60 voters for congress
  40 for bjp
  A got 75 % of congress vote
  75% of 60 =45
  and 8% of 40 = 3.2
  then total 48

• Assume total votes are 100.
  So A got 75% of 60 = 45
  8% of 40 = 3.2
  =>45+3.2=48
  A total of 48%
