Practicing Success
In an assembly election of two candidates, the winner got 56% of the total valid votes. 5% of the total votes were declared invalid. If the total number of voters is 3,20,000 then what is the number of valid votes polled for the winning candidate? |
174020 175240 170420 170240 |
170240 |
Number of valid votes = 320000 × \(\frac{95}{100}\) = 320000 × \(\frac{19}{20}\) = 304000 × \(\frac{14}{25}\) = 170240 |
