Answer:
To find out the total number of registered votes, we need to add the votes received by the candidates, the number of invalid votes, and the number of people who did not vote.
Given:
Votes received by the candidates:
Candidate 1: 268970 votes
Candidate 2: 268970 votes
Candidate 3: 268970 votes
Candidate 4: 268970 votes
Number of invalid votes: 75896
Number of people who did not vote: 43106
To calculate the total registered votes, we add all these numbers together:
Total registered votes = Votes received by the candidates + Number of invalid votes + Number of people who did not vote
= (268970 + 268970 + 268970 + 268970) + 75896 + 43106
= 1075880 + 75896 + 43106
= 1152882
Therefore, the total number of registered votes is 1,152,882.
