    Given:

    Particular city estimates that only 2/5 of its eligible voters went to the polls.

    30,000 voters were at the polls.

    To find:

    The number of eligible voters in the city.

    Solution:

    We have,

    Total number of votes at the polls = 30000

    Estimated eligible voters went to the polls = \dfrac{2}{5}

    Now, the number of eligible voters is

    \text{Eligible voters}=30000\times \dfrac{2}{5}

    \text{Eligible voters}=\dfrac{60000}{5}

    \text{Eligible voters}=12000

    Therefore, total number of eligible voters is 12000.
