THE MUDDLETOWN ELECTION
At the last Parliamentary election at Muddletown `5,473` votes were polled. The Liberal was elected by a majority of `18` over the Conservative, by `146` over the Independent, and by `575` over the Socialist. Can you give a simple rule for figuring out how many votes were polled for each candidate?
