Explanation:

Let’s break this down step by step so there’s zero guesswork.

- First, the total population across all five cities is 80,000.

- The pie chart (which you didn’t provide numbers for, but the question expects us to use equal populations since no split is mentioned) likely means: 80,000 / 5 = 16,000 people per city.

- Next, let’s find the number of males in each city:

- City A: 30% of 16,000 = 4,800

- City B: 40% of 16,000 = 6,400

- City C: 55% of 16,000 = 8,800

- City D: 45% of 16,000 = 7,200

- City E: 60% of 16,000 = 9,600

- Add all the males together: 4,800 + 6,400 + 8,800 + 7,200 + 9,600 = 36,800 males.

- Now take the average: 36,800 / 5 = 7,360.

So, looking at the options:

- Option 1: 7368 – Almost matches our answer (very close, possibly a minor rounding thing)

- Option 2: 7240 – Off by quite a bit.

- Option 3: 8632 – Too high.
