in a mayoral election , candidate x received 1 / 2 more votes than candidate y , and candidate y received 2 / 5 fewer votes than z . if z received 25,000 votes how many votes did candidate x received ?
z = 25 - - > y received 2 / 5 fewer votes than z - - > y = z - 2 / 5 * z = 15 ; x received 1 / 2 more votes than y - - > x = y + 1 / 2 * y = 22,5 . answer : b .
multiply(multiply(subtract(const_1, divide(2, 5)), multiply(multiply(multiply(const_0_25, const_100), const_100), const_10)), add(divide(1, 2), 1))
