In an election between two candidates, one got \(55\) % of the total valid votes, \(55\)% of the votes were invalid. If the total number of votes was \(7500\), the number of valid votes that the other candidate got, was:

  • A.2700
  • B.2900
  • C.3000
  • D.3100

Answer: A

Number of valid votes \(= 80\) % of \(7500 = 6000.\)

\(\therefore \) Valid votes polled by other candidate \(= 45\)% of \(6000\)

\(= (\frac{45}{100} \times 6000) = 2700.\)
