Answer:
John received 10% of the overall votes.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let us assume that the number of votes John got = m
So, the number of votes Vivienne received = 3 times (John's share )
= 3 times m = 3 m
Also, The number of Votes Nassim received = 2 times ( Vivienne's share)
2 x (3 m) = 6 m
Total Votes in the grade 6
= Votes received by { John + Vivienne + Nassim}
= m + (3 m) + (6 m) = 10 m
Hence, the total number of students who voted in grade 6 = 10 m
=
or, The percentage of John's Votes = 10%
Hence, John received 10% of the overall votes.
