    8% of the voters in a election did not cast their votes. In the election, there were only two candidates. The winner by obtaining 48% of the total votes defeated his contestant by 1100 votes. The total number or the voters in the election was?

    A) 21000

    B)               22000

    C) 23500              

    D) 27500

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

    Suppose the total number of the voters in the election was x. Then,    \[\frac{48}{100}x-\frac{44}{100}x=1100\] \[\frac{4}{100}x=1100\] \[x=\frac{110\times 100}{4}\] \[x=27500\]
