Direction (): Table given below shows percentage of total literate population of five (A, B, C, D & E) villages, literate male, illiterate male and total female (literate + illiterate). Read the data carefully and answer the questions.
Note – ‘NA’ means some vales are missing which you have to calculate if required.
Find the ratio between total male population to total female population in village B?
Explanation:
Let total population of village B = 100x
Total literate population of village B = 100x ×72/100=72x
And total illiterate population of village B = 100x –72x = 28x
Total literate male population of village B = 72x ×75/100=54x
And total literate female population of village B = 72x – 54x = 18x
Total illiterate male population of village B = 28x ×75100=21x
And total illiterate female population of village B = 28x – 21x = 7x
Required ratio = (54x + 21x) : (18x + 7x)
= 75x : 25x = 3 : 1
