Following table shows the percentage population of six states below poverty line and proportion of male and female.

Question 149

If the population of males below poverty line in state C is 6000 & state E 1000 then what is the ratio of the total population of state C& E is

Let total population of C and E be 100x and 100y respectively.

Number of males below poverty line in C = $$\frac{3}{7}\cdot14x$$ = 6x = 6000 => x=1000

Number of males below poverty line in E = $$\frac{4}{5}\cdot25y$$ = 20y=1000=>y= 50

Hence ratio = 20:1
