in a city 100% votes are registered in which 60% votes are for congress and 40% for bjp . there is a man A who got 75% of congress votes and 8% of bjp votes how many votes did A get

• total=100x
  c=60x
  b=40x
  a=(40x*8/100)+(60x*75/100)=48.2x
  so a get 48.2 votes of total.

• 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%

• if the total no of votes is 100
  then A has votes 75/100*60+8/100*40
  =48.2

• 75% of 60% i.e 60*(75/100)=45
  and 8% 0f 40% i.e 40*(8/100)=3.2
  therefore total vote=45+3.2=48.2
