To be selected as a student community leader a student needs (2/3)rd of the votes casted. If (1/5)th of the votes had been counted, a candidate has (5/18)th of what he needs then what part of the remainder votes does he still need?1). 81/352). 65/1083). 35/814). 5/27

Answer»

LET the no of votes casted be X

Required votes = 2x/3

Counted votes = x/5

Uncounted votes = x - (x/5) = 4x/5

Votes won by candidate = (5/18) of (2x/3) = 5x/27

Remaining votes required = (2x/3) – (5x/27) = 13x/27

∴ Required FRACTION = (13x/27)/(4x/5) = 65/108
