Study the following table carefully and answer the questions given blow it.
Total residents and percentage of women out of those living in various societies over the years
What is the respective ratio of the number of women to the total residents in Society E over the years?
Number of women in society E in :
2002 = $$\frac{40}{100} \times 220$$ = 88
2003 = $$\frac{65}{100} \times 240$$ = 156
2004 = $$\frac{50}{100} \times 250$$ = 125
2005 = $$\frac{45}{100} \times 220$$ = 99
2006 = $$\frac{50}{100} \times 240$$ = 120
2007 = $$\frac{40}{100} \times 260$$ = 104
=> Total women in society E = 88 + 156 + 125 + 99 + 120 + 104 = 692
Total residents in society E = 220 + 240 + 250 + 220 + 240 + 260 = 1430
$$\therefore$$ Required ratio = 692 : 1430
= 346 : 715
