Given :
Numbers of women = 104.9 million
Number of men = 96.2 million
Vote % of women = 49%
Vote % of men = 47%
So, vote casted by women = 104.9/100 × 49
= 51.401 million
Vote casted by men = 96.2/100 × 47
= 45.214 million
So, difference in votes of women and men = 51.401 - 45.214 million
= 6.187 million
Hence, 6.187 million more women casted votes than men.
