In a country, 60% of the male citizen and 70% of the female citizen are eligible for vote. 70% of male citizens eligible vote voted, and 60% of female citizens eligible to vote voted. What fraction of the citizens voted during the election ?
Correct Answer: Option C
Solution: Let, male citizen = x, female = y
Male voted = x \( \times \) 60/100 \( \times \) 70/100
Female voted = y \( \times \) 70/100 \( \times \) 60/100
So, fraction of citizen voted = \(\frac{{\frac{{4200}}{{10000}}x + \frac{{4200}}{{10000}}y}}{{x + y}}\) = 21/50
