Hi Shubham,
The winner got 57% of the valid votes. This implies the other candidate secured 43% of the valid votes.
It is given, winner won by 1120 votes.
Therefore, 14% of valid votes = 1120
Valid votes = 1120*100/14 = 8000
Let the total number of voters enrolled be 'x'.
It is given, 15% of voters did not votes. This implies 85% of voters voted.
85/100(x) = 8000+3900
17x/20 = 11900
x = 14000
The answer is option C.
Hope this helps!

The difference b/w the winner and the loser is 14% which corresponds to 1120 votes; hence total no of casted votes will be 1120/0.14=8000
Now, the total no of voters who are willing to vote is 3900+8000=11900
Total no. of voters enrolled= 11900/0.85=14000
