Gita, Hema, and Isha contested an election in which 6400
votes were polled and none of the votes were invalid. Hema got 60% more votes than the total votes obtained by Gita and Isha together. If Isha obtained only 20% of the total polled votes, find the number of votes obtained by Gita.Solution
Total votes= 6400 Votes by Isha (20%) = 6400 × 20 /100 = 1280 Let the combined votes of Gita and Isha be 100 units: Votes by Hema= 160 units (60% more than Gita and Isha) Total units: 100 + 160 = 260 ATQ- 260 unit =6400 1 unit = 6400 /260 = 24.62 Votes by Gita and Isha= 100 units × 24.62 = 2462 Votes by Isha= 1280 Votes by Gita= 2462 -1280 = 1182
