Question 53

In an election, a candidate won by getting 75% of the valid votes. Out of a total number of 560000 votes, 15% were invalid. What is the number of valid votes got by the winning candidate ?

Solution

Total number of votes = 560000

invalid votes=15%

Valid votes = 85% of 560000

                 = 476000

Number of valid votes got by winning candidate = 75% of 476000

                                                                        =$$ \frac{75}{100} \times 476000 $$

                                                                        = 357000
