California has 25 million registered voters.
To find:
The number of registered voters who participated in 2016 election.
Solution:
We have,
Total number of registered voters = 25 million
According to the question,
[tex]\text{Registered voters who participated}=\dfrac{3}{5}\times \text{Total number of registered voters}[/tex]
Now,
[tex]\text{Registered voters who participated}=\dfrac{3}{5}\times 25[/tex]
[tex]\text{Registered voters who participated}=3\times 5[/tex]
[tex]\text{Registered voters who participated}=15[/tex]
Therefore, there are 15 millions of registered voters who participated in 2016 election.
