ANSWER

The number of votes cast to Karl is
6000

EXPLANATION

The total votes cast is

14000

We were given that Adam and Karl won by ratio of
4:3
This means the number of votes cast to Adam corresponds to 4, while that of Karl corresponds to 3.

The total ratio is

= 4 + 3 = 7

Number of votes cast to Karl is

= \frac{Karl's\:ratio}{Total\:ratio} \times Total\:votes \:cast

= \frac{3}{7} \times 14000

This simplifies to,

= 3 \times 2000

= 6000

Therefore 6000 votes were cast in favour of Karl.

use the method of successive differences to determine the next term in the sequence: 4, 14, 82, 268, 657, 1359
IRISSAK [1]
The method of successive differences uses subtraction to the one number to the next and the process goes on until the difference settles constant which is not equal to zero. In this case, the constant difference reaches 25. Reversing the process to get the next term, the answer is 2509.
