Question
In an election between two
candidates, the winning candidate secured 25% more votes than the losing candidate. If the winner received 125 more votes than the losing candidate, how many votes were cast in total? Assume all votes were valid.Solution
ATQ,
Let the votes received by the losing candidate be 100x. Votes received by the winning candidate = 1.25×100x=125x. According to the question: 125x−100x=125 25x=125 x=5 So, the total number of votes cast = 100x+125x=225x=225×5=1125.
What will come in the place of question mark (?) in the given expression?
(63 - ?) ÷ 5 + √625 = 19 X (9 - 6)
- What will come in place of (?), in the given expression.
(4² + 6²) × 2 = ? What will come in the place of question mark (?) in the given expression?
(40/25) X 80 - ? = 45% of 300 - 5525.6% of 250 + √? = 119
1220 ÷ 61 ÷ 5 + 450 of 20% - 70 = √ ?
Simplify the expression:
(5x + 15) / (x² + 3x)
What will come in the place of question mark (?) in the given expression?Â
435 ÷ 29 X 792 ÷ 44 = √(? + 14) + 35 + 221 ÷ 17
...192.251 + 326.233 + 125.021 + 19.273 = ?
36% of 640 – 12.5% of 352 + 25% of 640 = ? – 48% of 432
Simplify the following expressions and choose the correct option.
18 * 15 - {3/5 of 250 + 72}
