Let the total length of pencil = L cm Then, black part = L/8∴ Remaining part = L - L/8 = 7L/ 8 and White part = (7L/8)/2 = 7L/8∴ Remaining part = L - (L/8 + 7L/16) = 7L/16∴ length of blue part = 7L/16According to the question, 7L/16 = 31/2⇒ 7L/16 = 7/2 ∴ L =8
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
