G.S.Kantharao   7 years AGO

Total population = 205000000
No of Voters listed =70%
= 205000000*70/100=143500000
No of Voters voted = 60%
= 143500000*60/100
= 86100000
BJP got =40%=86100000*40/100
=34440000
Hence my option is 5 which stands for 34440000

total 205000000 population in that only 70% are eligible for voting. so, 205000000×70/100=143500000. In that state election turn around only 60% I.e 143500000×60/100=86100000. Again bjp got exactly 40% then 86100000×40/100=34440000. This was the answer

Sahil Mehta   7 years AGO

since 70% of the voters are eligible for voting therefore ( 70/100)*205000000
= 1435000
since 60% of the people voted therefore
(60/100)*143500000 = 86100000
the turnout for bjp was 40% therefore
(40/100)*86100000 = 34440000
the final answer is 34440000
