A) 500
B) 600
C) 700
D) 800
Correct Answer: B
Solution :
If there were only two candidates and one of them got 62% votes. So, other got (100 - 62)% = 38% votes. Win margin of first candidate \[-(62-38)%\text{ }=24%\] Now, let the total number of voters be x. According to question, we have \[24%\,\,of\,\,x=144\] \[\Rightarrow \frac{24x}{100}=144\Rightarrow 24x=144x100\] \[\Rightarrow x=\frac{144\times 100}{24}=600\] So, the total number of voters \[=600\].You need to login to perform this action.
