Answer:
There were 2747 yes votes.
Step-by-step explanation:
This question can be solved using proportions.
The ratio of yes votes to no votes was 5 to 3 .
This means that for each 5 + 3 = 8 votes, 5 were yes and 3 were no.
If there were 4395 total votes, how many yes votes were there?
For each 8 votes, we have 5 yes. How many yes votes were there in 4395 votes?
5 yes - 8 votes
x yes - 4395 votes
8x = 4395*5
x = 4395*5/8
x = 2747
There were 2747 yes votes.
