Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of votes received by Bill Randall = x

The the number of votes received by Corrine Brown = x  + 13,852

Total votes = 119,056

x +x + 13,852 = 119,056

2x + 13,852 = 119,056

         2x      = 119,056 - 13,852

              2x  = 105,204

                 x = 105204/2

x = 52602

The number of votes received by Bill Randall = x = 52,602

The the number of votes received by Corrine Brown = 52,602 + 13,852

 = 66,454
