Answer 2

Percentage = 91.67%

Explanation:

Number of eligible voters = 240,000,000

Number of voters so far = 70,000,000

Number of estimated voters = 150,000,000

Total number of participants (voters) = 70,000,000 + 150,000,000 = 220,000,000

To find the percentage;

`Percentage = \frac {220,000,000}{240,000,000} * 100`

`Percentage = \frac {11}{12} * 100`

`Percentage = 0.9167 * 100`

Percentage = 91.67%

Therefore, the percentage of eligible voters that will participate in this year's election is 91.67%
