In an assembly election, a candidate got 60% of the total valid votes. 2% of the total votes were declared invalid. If the total number of voters is 126000, then the number of valid votes polled in favour of the candidate is.
Total votes = 126000 Total valid votes = 126000× ((100-2))/100 = 126000× 98/100 = 123480 Votes polled in favour of the candidate = 123480 × 60/100 = 74088
