There were two candidates in an election. 10% of voters did not cast their votes. 60 votes were found invalid. The winning candidate got 47% of the valid votes and won by 308 votes. Find the number of voters enrolled.

Question

Answer 1

the total no of valid vote = 100%
the winng candidate vote = 47%
people who did not cast their vote = 10%
therefore the vote got by losing candidate = 100-(47+10)=43%
GIVE THAT THE VINNER GOT 308 MORE VOTES THEREFORE 4%IS 304 THEN 100% =304/4*100=7700 IS THE VALID VOTE
THE TOTAL VOTERS ENROLLED = 7700+60=7760
