The table given below shows the percentage of literate people in 6 cities. This table also shows the ratio of males to females among literate people.
% of literate people of any city = (Literate people of the city / Total population of the city) x 100
The population of the 6 cities are 250000, 200000, 220000, 300000, 150000 and 400000 respectively. Which is the correct order of the number of literate people in these cities?
Solution
Number of literate people in the cities :
City 1 : $$\frac{80}{100}\times250,000$$ = 200,000
City 2 : $$\frac{85}{100}\times200,000$$ = 170,000
City 3 : $$\frac{78}{100}\times220,000$$ = 171,600
City 4 : $$\frac{63}{100}\times300,000$$ = 189,000
City 5 : $$\frac{92}{100}\times150,000$$ = 138,000
City 6 : $$\frac{58}{100}\times400,000$$ = 232,000
=> City 6 > City 1 > City 4 > City 3 > City 2 > City 5
=> Ans - (D)
