Equal number of candidates appeared in each state.
In state A, 6% candidates got selected.
In state B, 7% candidates got selected.
Given that 80 more candidates got selected in state B than A.

=> 100% of candidates appeared in each state =80×100=8000
i.e., number of candidates appeared from each state = 8000
