This can be shown by this formula.

300 is 60% of x. So if u can find the 100% by taking 300 and multiplying it by 100 which would be the 100% and dividing it by 60 which would be the 60%. The number that you get is how many didn't vote for Denise. Now just add these which would be 300+200 which would give you the answer above.
