Question:

In an election the winning candidate got 52% of the votes and won by 800 votes. How many votes were cast in all? (There were only two candidates.) / एक चुनाव में विजेता प्रत्याशी को 52% मत मिले और वह 800 मतों से जीता। कुल कितने मत पड़े? (केवल दो प्रत्याशी थे)

25,000

Correct Answer: 20,000

The difference in votes = 52% − 48% = 4% = 800, so total votes = 800 × 100 ÷ 4 = 20,000. Treating 800 as 52% of the total is the trap. / मतों का अंतर = 52% − 48% = 4% = 800 ⇒ कुल मत = 800 × 100 ÷ 4 = 20,000। 800 को 52% का मान लेना जाल है.
