Vedclass · Answer

(A) Total votes polled $= 7500$.Invalid votes $= 20 \% 	ext{ of } 7500 = \frac{20}{100} 	imes 7500 = 1500$.Valid votes $= 	ext{Total votes} - 	ext{Invalid votes} = 7500 - 1500 = 6000$.One candidate received $55 \%$ of the valid votes.Therefore,the other candidate received $(100 \% - 55 \%) = 45 \%$ of the valid votes.Number of valid votes received by the other candidate $= 45 \% 	ext{ of } 6000 = \frac{45}{100} 	imes 6000 = 45 	imes 60 = 2700$.

In an election between two candidates,one got $55 \%$ of the total valid votes,and $20 \%$ of the total votes were invalid. If the total number of votes polled was $7500$,what was the number of valid votes that the other candidate received?
