(Q). In the previous question to vote for 1 candidate a voter needs 1 ballot paper then which one of the following could be the total number of ballot paper:
(i). 4401
(ii). 4402
(iii). 4403
(iv). 4405
Solution:-
From the answer of previous question a particular voter can vote in (2ⁿ – 2) ways
If number of voter is p
so total number of ways to vote = p×(2ⁿ – 2)
this will be same as the number of ballot paper required.
Hence number of ballot papers = p×(2ⁿ – 2)
From the given options
4402 = 71×62
= 71×(2⁶ – 2)
Hence Answer is option (ii). 4402
