in an election a candidate who gets 60 % of the votes is elected by a majority of 1300 votes . what is the total number of votes polled ?
"let the total number of votes polled be x then , votes polled by other candidate = ( 100 - 60 ) % of x = 40 % of x 60 % of x - 40 % of x = 1300 20 x / 100 = 1300 x = 1300 * 100 / 20 = 6500 answer is e"
divide(1300, divide(subtract(60, subtract(const_100, 60)), const_100))
