2. In an election between two candidates, 75 % of the voters cast their votes, out of which 2% of the votes were declared invalid. A candidate got 9261 votes which were 75% of the total valid votes. Find the total number of votes.

16800
15800
16700
15700

Answer: Option A

Explanation:

Let the total number of votes enrolled are x.
Number of votes cast = 75% of x
Valid votes = 98% of 75% of x

Now, as 9261 is the 75% of valid casted votes so,

75% of 98% of 75% of x = 9261 [imporant]

$\begin{align} => \frac{75 \times 98 \times 75 \times x}{100 \times 100 \times 100} = 9261 \\ => x = 16800 \end{align}$

Now, we need to calculate 60 is what percent of 120.

=> 60/120 * 100 = 50 %
