Three candidates contested an election and received 1136, 7636 and 11628 votes respectively. What percentage of the total votes did the winning candidate get?
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer:
Option
A
Total number of votes polled
= (1136 + 7636 + 11628)
= 20400
∴ Required percentage
= $$\left( {\frac{{11628}}{{20400}} \times 100} \right)\% $$
= $$57\% $$
= (1136 + 7636 + 11628)
= 20400
∴ Required percentage
= $$\left( {\frac{{11628}}{{20400}} \times 100} \right)\% $$
= $$57\% $$
