In a referendum the no alternative got 1 000 000 more votes than the yes alternative. If 50 000 of the yes voters had voted no , then the no alternative would have gotten twice as many votes as the yes alternative. How many participated in the referendum?
This is my attempt:
yes=x
no=y
y=x + 1 000 000
2 y = x + 1 050 000
This is however incorrect. Where is my error? I know how to solve simultanious equations and I only need help with writing the first to equations. Thank you in advance!
