Option 3: 33
Option 4: 57
Correct Answer: 57
Solution :
Three candidates contested an election and won 1136, 7636, and 11628 votes.
Highest votes = 11628
Total number of votes polled =1136 + 7636 + 11628 = 20400
So, Required percentage $=\frac{11628}{20400} \times 100= 57 \%$
Hence, the correct answer is 57.
