Sagot :
1/3 is equal to about 33%. 60%+33%=93%. There should be 100%.
Answer:
The reason why the article cannot be accurate is because there's only 2 candidates, that is, the 100% of all votes must be the sum of both candidate's both, and if we sum, we find that the percentages given don't represent the total 100%:
[tex]\frac{60\%}{100\%}+\frac{1}{3}=\frac{3}{5}+\frac{1}{3}=\frac{9+5}{15}=\frac{14}{15}[/tex]
As you can see, the sum of both ratios don't result in 1, which means 100%. If we divide we have:
[tex]\frac{14}{15} \approx 0.93 \ or \ 93\%[/tex]
According to the article, both candidates only represent 93%, which is wrong, because they must represent 100%, because there's no other candidate.
