Direction: Read the following data carefully and answer the following questions:
There are two villages A and B in a certain district. The population of village A is 35% less than the population of village B. Total population of both villages is 8250. The ratio between adults and children in two villages is 20: 13. The difference between the number of adults and children including two villages is 1750. In village A, the number of adults is 60% more than the number of children. While in village B, the number of adults is 1.5 times the number of children.
The number of children in village A is approximately what percent of the total population of village A?
39%
35%
25%
31%
44%
- To solve this, let's decode the data first. Let the population of village B be x. Then, the population of village A will be 0.65x (as it's 35% less than village B).
- \(x + 0.65x = 8250\). Solving gives \(x = 5000\). Thus, population of village A is 3250.
- Total adults to children ratio is given as 20:13. So, adults are \(20/33\) and children are \(13/33\) of the combined populations, totaling 8250.
- Difference between adults and children is 1750. Solving these gives the number of adults as 5000, and children as 3250.
- In village A, adults are 60% more than children. Let children in A be y, then adults = 1.6y.
- For village B, adults are 1.5 times children. Using the total, solve for children in village A as 1250.
- Children in A, 1250 is approximately 38.46% of village A's total 3250 population.
- Correct Answer is Option 1: 39%
