60% of male in a town and 70% of female in a town are eligible to vote. out of which 70% of male and 60% of female who are eligible to vote voted 4 candidate A. what is the value of votes in % did A get?

• male voter=60,female voter=70
  out of 60 male votes A got=(60*70)/100=42
  and female votes A got=(70*60)/100=42
  eligible vote is 130
  so A got (84/130)*100=64.6%

• question asks for what percent of citizen casted their vote...
  let total male=a and female=b
  eligible to vote are 6a/10 and 7b/10 respectively
  voters voted are
  men=(6a/10)*(7/10)=42a/100
  women=(7b/10)*(6/10)=42b/100
  so percent citizen voted=(((42a/100)+(42b/100))/(a+b))*100=42%
• 10 years agoHelpfull: Yes(37) No(22)
• let total male=a female=b
  eligible male voters=6a/10 female voters=7a/10
  total eligible voters=(6a+7b)/10
  total voters voted for A =(6a/10)*(70/100)+(7a/10)*(60/100)
  = (42(a+b))/100
  percentage of votes A got (42(a+b)/100)/total eligible votes
  =(42(a+b)/100)/((6a+7b)/100)
  But values of a & b are unknown.
  So data are insufficient.

  60 men and 70 women are eligible to vote
  70%of men voted to A= 42 men
  60% of women voted for A= 42 women

• the answer will be 42% if we take the total population. But if we take the total number of votes casted then the given information is insufficient!!

• male=60
  female=70
  total 60 + 70=130 eligible
  70 percent of male(60)=70*60=42
  60 percent of female(70)=60*70=42
  total=42+42=84percent of votes A will get.

• The answer is 64.6% as solved in above comments and its the final answer.

• Let the ratio of men and women are 100 : k
  Male eligible votes = 60 and female eligible votes = 70% (k)
  Number of males who voted for A = 70% (60) = 42
  Number of females who voted for A = 60%(70% (K) = 42% (k)
  Percentage of votes got by A = 42+42100(K)60+70100(K)×100=4200+42K6000+70K×100
  So this value cannot be determined as the value of K is not known

• sorry for calculation mistake its 84%
• 10 years agoHelpfull: Yes(1) No(8)
• if there are 1000 people with 500 male and 500 female then eligible males are 300 and eligible females are 350 and the no. of males voting for A are 210 and the same number of females vote for A. So total votes for A are 420 and the total number of eligible votes are 650 and so the percentage turns out to be 64.6%

• 64.6 IS THE RIGHT ANSWER AS WE WILL HAVE TO CALCLULAT %VOTE RECEIVED BY A NOT AND WHICH WILL BE CALCULATED BY TAKING BASE TOTAL NO. OF VOTE CAST IN THE ELECTION

• Let the ratio of men and women are 100 : k

  Number of females who voted for A = 60%(70% (K) = 42% (k)
  Percentage of votes got by A = $displaystylefrac{{42 + displaystylefrac{{42}}{{100}}(K)}}{{60 + displaystylefrac{{70}}{{100}}(K)}} imes 100 = displaystylefrac{{4200 + 42K}}{{6000 + 70K}} imes 100$

• 65% (approx.)
  
  Let us assume the male and female population as 100 each.
  
  Eligible to vote -> Male 60% = 60. Female 70% = 70.
  
  Total eligible to vote -> 60 + 70 = 130.
  
  70% of 60 voted for candidate A -> 42 males
  
  60% of 70 voted for candidate A -> 42 females.
  
  Thus totally 42 + 42 = 84 eligible voters voted for candidate A
  
  Hence the percentage of votes secured by A -> 84/130 * 100 = 64.61% say 65%
