Step-by-step explanation:

The digital scale has to be used once.

Let the coins that have normal weights are normal coins and the coins that has a weight 1 pound less are called defected coins.

5 stacks are there in which any four contains normal coins and 1 stack contains defected coins.

Took 1 coin from 1st stack, 2 coins from 2nd stack and so on..

Weigh the coins and see the result.

If the total weight is 1 pound less than the stack 1 contains defected coin.

If the total weight is 2 pounds less than the stack 2 contains defected coin.

If the total weight is 3 pounds less than the stack 3 contains defected coin.

If the total weight is 4 pounds less than the stack 4 contains defected coin.

If the total weight is 5 pounds less than the stack 5 contains defected coin.

⅝ of the votes were for blue. That leaves ⅜ of the votes remaining. 5/9 of the remaining ⅜ votes were for green, so you multiply 5/9 x ⅜ = 15/72 votes for green. ⅝ of the votes were for blue, so you can multiply the fraction by 9/9 to get 45/72. So 45/72 votes were for blue, and 15/72 votes were for green. That leaves 12/72 votes remaining, which were for red. Since the question says 48 votes out of the total number of votes were for red, this means 48/v = 12/72 (v = the total number of votes). Cross multiply and solve for v to get v = 288. The fraction for blue is ⅝, so you can say x/288 = ⅝ (x = the number of votes for blue). Cross multiply and solve for x to get x = 180 votes for blue.
