545 / 620 = x / 15000

Based on the question asked, the correct option will be 545/620 = x/15,000.

Let the number of the anticipated votes that Hargrove is likely to get be represented by x.

Based on the information given, then the equation will be:

545/620 = x/15,000

Cross multiply

(620 × x) = (15000 × 545)

x = (15000 × 545) / 620

x = 13185

In this case, Hagrove is likely to get 13185 votes

Based on the question asked, the correct option will be 545/620 = x/15,000.
