Answer: 10,098 votes

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio is 7 : 4 which means that for every 7 yes votes, there were 4 no votes.

To find the total votes, add the ratios:

= 7 + 4

= 11

4/11 are the no votes out of the total. Assuming the total is x, the formula is:

4/11x = 3,672

x = 3,672 / 4/11

x = 10,098 votes
