Explanation:

Percentage of votes polled for winning candidate = 54%
Percentage of votes polled for defeated candidate = 46%
Percentage majority = 54 - 46 = 8%
Let the number of valid votes be 'x'.
8% of x = 1620
x = 20250
So, the number of valid votes are 20250.
Let the total number of votes polled be y.
10% of the votes are invalid.
90% of y = 20250
y = 22500
So, the number of votes polled are 22500.

Let the number of voters enrolled be z.

10% of the voters did not cast their vote.

90% of z = 22500

z = 25000
