Question

In an election, two contestants A and B contested x percent sign of the total voters voted for A and open parentheses x plus 20 close parentheses percent sign for B. If 20% of the voters did not vote, then x equals

  1. 30  
  2. 25  
  3. 40  
  4. 35  

The correct answer is: 30


    Let the total number of voters be n. Then,
    Number of voters voted for A equals fraction numerator n x over denominator 100 end fraction
    Number of voters voted for B equals fraction numerator n left parenthesis x plus 20 right parenthesis over denominator 100 end fraction
    therefore Number of voters who voted for both
    equals fraction numerator n x over denominator 100 end fraction plus fraction numerator n left parenthesis x plus 20 right parenthesis over denominator 100 end fraction
    equals fraction numerator n left parenthesis 2 x plus 20 right parenthesis over denominator 100 end fraction
    H e n c e comma blank n minus fraction numerator n open parentheses 2 x plus 20 close parentheses over denominator 100 end fraction equals fraction numerator 20 n over denominator 100 end fraction rightwards double arrow x equals 30
