1. 840000
2. 616000
3. 560000
4. 720000
5. None of these

Answer 1

Correct Answer - Option 2 : 616000

Number of valid votes = 75% of 100000  = 750000

so, Runner-Up gets votes = 18% of 750000 =134000

     Votes of winner = Number of valid votes - Runner-Up votes

                              = 750000 - 134000

                             = 616000
