Diane received 300 votes in the election for student council president. That was 60% of the students who voted in the election. How many students voted in the election?

60% = 300

Therefore 100% = (300/6)*10
500 students :)

Answer:

500 voting in the election

Explanation:

if 300 is 60% that means every 50 votes are 10% so then if you add 100 votes that's 400 votes and at 80% so add another 100 votes that makes it 500 votes and at 100%
