Question
There were two candidates in an election. 10% of the
total voters did not cast their votes whereas 5% of the casting votes were declared invalid. If the winning candidate received 50% of the total votes and won by 7250 votes then find out the total number of Voters?Solution
Let the total voters be 100 No. of votes cast (90%) = 90 No. of valid votes = 90 × (95 )/(100 ) = 85.5 Winning candidate got 50% of total votes = 50 Looser candidate got = 85.5 – 50 = 35.5 Difference between winning and looser candidate votes = 7,250 50 – 35.5 = 14.5 14.5 = 7,250 100 = (7,250 )/(14.5 )×100  = 50,000  Total number of votes = 50,000Â
