Question

In a local election, 16,000 people voted. This was an increase of 4% over the last election.

How many people voted in the last election? If necessary, round to the nearest whole
number

Answer 1

Hey!

Your answer is 15,360!

Explanation:

4% of 16,000 is 640

SO...

To find out the last year's amount of voters we have to minus 640 from 16,000...

16,000 - 640 = 15,360
