Discussion :: Percentage
- Two candidates contested an election. The winning candidate scored 54% and won by 88 votes. If 58 votes were declared invalid, find the total number of votes polled in the election?
Answer : Option C
Explanation :
Let the valid votes = x
As per question; 54% of x-46% of x = 88
8% of x = 88
∴ Total votes polled = valid votes + invalid votes
= 1100 + 58 = 1158
