Question

In the 2008 presidential election of a country, 121,621,050 people turned out to vote. At the time, there were 190,296,524 registered voters. What percent of the registered voters voted?

Answer 1

The percentage of registered voters that voted are

`\frac{\text{voted}}{\text{registered voters }}*100`

Now,

# voted = 121,621,050

# registered voters = 190,296,524;

therefore,

`\text{percent}=(121,621,050)/(190,296,524)*100=63.91\approx64`

Hence, about 64% of the registered voters voted.
