Given situation: Mr. jones received 70% of the 1500 vote casts in an election Question and solution => How many votes did Mr Jones received: => 1 500 is the total number of voters and 70% of it voted Mr. Jones. SO let’s start solving to get the number of voters who voted him. => 70% = 70 / 100 = .70 => 1 500 * .70 => 1 050 , the number of voters who voted him in an election.
