Candidate X won 63 out of the 100 "votes" of the poll participants.

So candidate X won 63% of the votes in the poll. 


This means that candidate X is expected to win the elections by a percentage close to 63%.

63% of the voters is (63/100)*5000=63*50=3150 voters


Answer: 3150

There are 7 people in a room. Each person shakes hands once. How many handshakes will there be?
DiKsa [7]

7 people so first one shakes hand with the remaining people. that is 6

The 2nd person also shakes hand with 6 persons but we have already counted his handshake with first person. so we have to add 6-1 = 5 shakes for 2nd person

like wise 3rd person shakes hand with the remaining 6-2 = 4 people

4th person with 6-3=3 people

5th person with 6-4= 2 persons

6th person with 6-5=1 person

and 7th one with no one because already he has shaken his hand with everyone.

since these people shake their hands with others only once we just have to add the obtained values

6+5 +4+3+2+1= 21

totally 21 handshakes will be there in that room

Step-by-step explanation:

Let John's age be x. This gives us that in 11 years, john's age will be 5 less than 5 times his current age. Therefore, we could get: x+11=5x-5. This is your second equation. Solving for x, we get 4x=16 so x=4.
