According to a CNN "National Exit Poll", 12% of the respondants were African-American. If we apply this to the total number of votes cast in the election (for both candidates) we can see an approximation of the number of Afican-American votes cast in said election.

66,882,230 Votes for Obama + 58,343,671 Votes for McCain = 125,225,901 Votes total

125,225,901 * .12 = 15,027,108 African American Votes cast.

Approximately.

The ratio of yes votes to no votes in an election was 5 to 6 How many yes votes were cast if there were a total of 6281 votes cast?

To find the number of yes votes, we first need to calculate the total parts in the ratio, which is 5 + 6 = 11. Then, we divide the total number of votes by the total parts in the ratio: 6281 / 11 = 571. Next, we multiply this result by the number of parts representing yes votes (5) to find the number of yes votes: 571 * 5 = 2855. Therefore, there were 2855 yes votes cast in the election.

The ratio of yes votes to no votes in an election was 4 to 7 How many total votes were cast if there were 4592 no votes cast?

If there were 4592 no votes cast and the ratio of yes to no votes was 4 to 7, we can set up the equation 4/7 = x/4592, where x is the total number of votes. Cross multiplying, we find that 7x = 4 * 4592. Simplifying, we get 7x = 18368. Dividing both sides by 7, we find that x = 2624, so a total of 2624 votes were cast in the election.
