- A. 10,000
- B. 10,000
- C. 10,000
- D. 10,000
Answer: Option C
Explanation:
ধরি, মোট ভেটারের সংখ্যা x
A প্রার্থীর প্রদেয় ভোটারের সংখ্যা ( 30% of x)
= 30x/100 = 3x/10
B প্রার্থীর প্রদেয় ভোটারের সংখ্যা ( x - 3x/10) × 60 /100 = 21x /50.
ভোট দেয়নি তাদের সংখ্য = ( x - 3x/10 - 21x/50)
= 50x - 15x - 21x/50 = 14x/50 = 7x/25
3x/10 - 7x/25 = 1200
15x - 14x /50 = 1200
x/50 = 1200
x = 6000
