Answer 1

All of the choices are correct
622,620 ÷ 3 = 207,540
622,620 ÷ 9 = 69,180
622,620 ÷ 4 = 155,655
622,620 ÷ 10 = 62,262

All of them give answers that are whole numbers which can be divided equally by 3, 9, 4, and 10 candidates

Answer 2

All of the above

Explanation:

I'm not sure, but if you divide the number of people by each candidate, you'll get a value that the number of candidates will equal the number of people. I repeat I'm not sure of my answer.
