3.In an election between two
candidates, one got 55% of the total valid votes, 20% of the votes were
invalid. If the total number of votes was 7500, the number of valid votes that
the other candidate got, was
A. 2500 B.
2700
C. 3000 D.
3100
Answer:
Number of valid votes = 80% of
7500
= 6000.
Valid votes polled by other
candidates = 45% of 6000
(45/100×6000)
= 2700.
