1 vote

The total members of the chess club = 85 members

Alonzo received a total votes of 51 from the 85 members

The percentage of the votes received = number of people who voted for Alonzo divided by the total number of the chess club members

Number of people that voted = 51

Total number of people = 85

Percentage = 51 / 85 x 100%

= 0.6 x 100%

= 60%

Therefore, 60% of the chess club members voted for Alonzo

The answer is 60%
