Total votes= 7500 Votes by Chirag (12%) = 7500 × 12 /100 = 900 Let the combined votes of Anita and Chirag be 100 units: Votes by Brij= 150 units (50% more than Anita and Chirag) Total units= 100 + 150 = 250 ATQ- 250 units =7500 1 unit = 7500/250=30 Votes by Anita and Chirag= 100 units ×30 = 3000 Votes by Chirag= 900 Votes by Anita= 3000 - 900 = 2100
