Three candidates contested an election and received 1136, 7636 and 11628 votes respectively. What percentage of the total votes did the winning candidate get? |
|
Answer» 57% Total votes = 1136+7636+11628 = 20400 Now, we don't know the name of the CANDIDATES .So for easy let's SAY A,B and C are the candidates who receives 1136 , 7636 and 11628 votes RESPECTIVELY. => Candidate C gets more votes and obviously he/she wins. PERCENTAGE OF THE TOTAL VOTES OF THE WINNING CANDIDATE(i.e. Candidate C) = 11628/20400 × 100 = 57% |
