p1 + p2 + p3 = 20400.
(11628/20400) * 100 = 11628/204.
204* ??= 11628.
4*7=28
Ans 57.
(11628/20400) * 100 = 11628/204.
204* ??= 11628.
4*7=28
Ans 57.

Let the total taken as 100.
20400->100
then;
11628->?
so,
100*11628/20400 = 57.
20400->100
then;
11628->?
so,
100*11628/20400 = 57.

Why because we need winner candidate % so we take it as a numerator.

Percentage =11628/20400,
= 57%.
= 1136 + 7636 + 11628,
= 20400.
Percentage =11628/20400,

50% of 20400 = 10200.
11628-10200 = 1428.
1428*100/20400 = 7.
50+7 = 57.
11628-10200 = 1428.
1428*100/20400 = 7.
50+7 = 57.
