Q. In village B if the total voters in 2001 were % more than total voters in 2005, then find the ratio of invalid voters in 2001 to the invalid voters in 2005 from the same village.

• A. 131:160
• B. 130:161
• C. 127:141
• D. 18:161
• E. None of these

Answer 1

The correct option is B 130:161

Let the total voters in 2005 is X
$13\frac{1}{23}\%=\frac{3}{23}$
Total vvoters in 2001
$=(1+\frac{3}{23})X=\frac{26}{23}X$
Required Ratio
$\left(\frac{26}{23}X\right)\times \frac{25}{100}:X\times \frac{35}{}100130:161$
