Consider an election with 681 votes a) If there are 5 candidates, what is the smallest number of first-place votes a candidate could win with under the Plurality method?

137 votes

Step-by-step explanation:

considering an election with 681 votes and 5 candidates up for the election

dividing the votes among'st 5 candidates

= 681 / 5 = 136.2  hence the least number of first-place votes needed by a candidate using the plurality method  would be = 137 votes

136.2 + 136.2 + 136.2 + 136.2 + 136.2 = 681 ( dividing the votes equally )

136 + 136 + 136 + 136+136 = 680

hence the remaining vote = 681 - 680 = 1

least first-place vote = 136 + 1 = 137 votes
