Question
In an election between two candidates ‘A’ and ‘B’,
the ratio of number of votes they got is 5:8, respectively. If ‘B’ wins the election by 4650 votes, then find the number of votes received by ‘A’.Solution
Let the number of votes received by ‘A’ and ‘B’ be ‘5x’ and ‘8x’, respectively
ATQ: 8x – 5x = 4650
Or, 3x = 4650
Or, x = 1550
Now, number of votes received by ‘A’ = 5x = 5 × 1550 = 7750
