In an election ,30% of voters voted for A,60% of remainig voted for candidate B.remaning voters did not vote.if difference between those who voted for candidate A and those who did not vote was 1200.how many eligible for casting?

• 60000
  
  If total voters=x
  Votes for A=0.3x, B=(x-0.3x)*60/100=0.42x
  Total voted for A & B=0.3x+0.42x=0.72x
  So voters didn't voted=x-0.72x=0.28x
  Given 0.3x- 0.28x= 1200, 0.02x=1200, x=60000

• let the total voters be x
  given difference between who voted for candidate a and those who didnt vote =1200
  i.e.,30%of x-10% of x=1200
  20% of x=1200
  then x=6000
  only 90% of x are eligible for casting=90% of 6000=5400

• 30%= 3 out of 10 goes to A
  ==>A got 3 votes.
  Now remaining votes =10-3=7
  60% of 7=4.2 votes
  goes to B .
  Voters who did not cast their votes ==> 10-(votes of A +votes of B)
  10 - (3+4.2)=10-7.2=2.8
  Now
  given , 3-2.8=1200
  solving ,6000 ans

• let the total numbers of voters be x
  
  it is given that
  
  .3x - .1x = 1200
  => .2x = 1200
  => x=6000
  
  eligible voters = 6000
