In a local election between two contestants 'A' and 'B',
'A' secured 72% of the total votes and defeated 'B' by 6,480 votes. How many votes did 'B' receive?Solution
ATQ,
Let total votes = 100n
Votes for A = 72n
Votes for B = 100n - 72n = 28n
72n - 28n = 6,480
⇒ 44n = 6,480
⇒ n = 147
Votes received by B = 28 × 147 = 4,116
