    Question

    Raju, Ravi and Ashok contested an election. 5% votes polled were invalid. Raju got 30% of the total votes. Ravi got 32% of the total votes. The winner got 5136 more votes than the person who received the least number of votes. Find the total number of votes polled.

    A.

    171200

    B.

    64200

    C.

    171220

    D.

    172100

    Correct option is A

    Let the total number of votes be 100.
    Invalid votes = 5
    Raju got votes form total numbers of votes = 30
    Ravi got votes form total numbers of votes = 32
    Then, Ashok got votes = (100-5) - (30 + 32) = 33
    Winner got votes = (33 - 30) = 3
    3 → 5136
    100 → 171200
    Total number of votes polled = 171200.
