HELP I REALLY NEED THE HELP. In a recent election, Abe Lawton
received 45% of the vote. If he
received 2,367 votes, how many
people voted in the election?


Sagot :

Answer: 5,260

Step-by-step explanation:

So the question here is 45% of WHAT number (x) = 2,367

Setup as a fraction

45/100 = 2,367/X

Cross multiply

45X=236,700

Divide 45X by 45 to get X alone

Divide the other side too bc what you do to one side, you have to do to the other.

236,700/45=

5,260

Check your answer

45/100=2367/5260
