Question 1:
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.2700
Feedback Number of valid votes = 80% of 7500 = 6000. Therfore, Valid votes polled by other candidate = 45% of 6000 [(45/100) X 6000 ] = 2700.
B.2900
C.3000
D.3100
