in a recent town election, 75% of the 16000 people voted of the voting people,60% voted for the current mayor and 120 voted were invalid.how many people voted for the other candidates

Respuesta :

4752 people.

75% of 16000 = 12000 (people that voted). 12000 (people that voted) - 120 (invalid votes) = 11880 (legit votes). 11880 (legit votes) - 60% (7128; the people that voted for the mayor) = 4752 (the people that voted for other candidates).
