Three candidates in a election received 1136,7636 and 11628 votes respectively. What percentage of the total votes did the winning candidate get?
Answer: 57%
Explanation
Total number of votes polled=(1136+7636+11628)=20400
∴ Required Percentage=(2040011628×100)%
=57%
OR
Total number of votes polled
= (1,136 + 7,636 + 11,628)
= 20,400
Calculate percentage
= (11,628 / 20,400×100)
= 57%
=57%
Total number of votes polled
= (1,136 + 7,636 + 11,628)
= 20,400
Calculate percentage
= (11,628 / 20,400×100)
= 57%
