Problema Solution
Ladonna is running for city council she needs to get 4/5 of her votes from senior citizens, and 35,000 in all to win. How many votes does she need from voters other than senior citizens?
Answer provided by our tutors
let
x = (4/5)* 35000 votes from senior citizens
y = 35000 - (4/5)* 35000 votes from non-senior citizens.
y = 35000 - 28000
y = 7,000 votes from non senior citizens.
She needs 7,000 votes from non-senior citizens.
