Ward 5 reported 7 times as many votes as Ward 7. Ward 4 reported 8 times as many votes as Ward 7. If Ward 7 reported 4427 votes, how many votes did the three wards report in all?

Respuesta :

The three wards reported 70,832 votes in all.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let,

Votes reported by Ward 5 = x

Votes reported by Ward 7 = y = 4427

Votes reported by Ward 4 = z

According to given statement;

x = 7y

[tex]x=7(4427)\\x=30989[/tex]

z = 8y

[tex]z=8(4427)\\z=35416[/tex]

Total votes = x+y+z

Total votes = 30989+4427+35416

Total votes = 70832

The three wards reported 70,832 votes in all.
