Answer: 8525

Let the total number votes = x

Ratio of yes votes = 7

Ratio of no votes. = 4

Total vote. = 11

Total number that voted for yes

= 5425

Therefore total number of vote casted.

7/11 x X = 5425

7x/11 = 5425

7x = 5425 x 11

7x = 59675

To find x , divide through by 7

x = 59675/11

= 8525
