In a district, the total number of voters is 10 lakhs but 80% of the voters are casting their votes. There are four parties A, B, C, and D participating in the election and B receives 20% votes, C receives 28% votes and D receives 22% votes. What is the average number of votes cast for the losing parties? Correct Answer 186667 votes
Total number of voters = 10 lakhs
Total number of voters who have cast their votes = 80% of the total cast votes = 800000 votes
Total number votes casted for the losing parties = (20 + 22 + 28)% of total casted votes = 70% of the
total casted votes = 800000 × 70/100 = 560000 votes
Hence, the required average votes receive to the losing parties = 560000/3 = 186667 votes.
