Number of male voters = 4/10 of 1575 = 4/10 x 1575 = 630 Number of female voters=1575 - 630 = 945 Now, total votes that candidate got = (6/10) x 630 + (4/10) x 945 = 378 + 378 = 756
Let the number be X Decreasing 2 from XX - 2 = 80 x (1/X)X^2 - 2X = 80X^2 -2x -80 = 0(X-10)(X+8) = 0x=10,-8X has two values, but among the given options X value should be 10
