Question

The winner in a class election for class president received

receive?
A 60
B
150
C 180
D 320
of the 240 votes. How many votes did the winner

Answer 1

Answer:B or C

Explanation:

The answer is either B or C because out of 240 votes, 150 votes (B) or 180 votes (C) would have the majority of the votes available, making for a sure win for the winner.

It could not be D because there cant be 320 votes out of 240

It "cant" be A because although there can be 60 out of 240 votes, assuming there are 2 candidates, 60 would be less than the number of votes the opposition would have thus the "winner" would not have "won"

This is answered assuming there are only 2 candidates. A more in-depth question would aide to answering the question better.
