Instructions

A constituency is divided in four regions A, B, C and D. Two candidates X & Y contested the last election from that constituency. The adjoining graph gives the break up of voting in the four regions. Study the graph and answer the following questions.

Question 72

Approximately how much percent of voters voted in favour of X?

Solution

NumberĀ of voters voted in favour of X = 45 + 73 + 51 + 56 = 225

NumberĀ of voters voted in favour of Y = 40 + 88 + 47 + 51 = 226

Number of voters who did not vote = 1 + 9 + 5 + 8 = 23

=> Total number of voters = 225 + 226 + 23 = 474

$$\therefore$$ Percent of voters in favor of X = $$\frac{225}{474} \times 100$$

= $$47.5\%$$

=> Ans - (B)
