Study the table carefully and answer the given questions.
What is the male population above poverty line for State P if the female population below poverty line for State P is 2.1 million ?
Let the population under below poverty line in state B be
Male = 5x & Female = 6x
=> 6x = 2.1 million => x = 2.1/6 = 0.35 million
Total population below poverty line = 6x + 5x = 11* 0.35 = 3.85 million
% population below poverty line = 35%
Total population (both above poverty line and below poverty line) in state P = (3.85/35)*100 = 11 million
% population above poverty line = 65%
=> Total population above poverty line = (65/100)*11 million = 7.15 million
Male population above poverty line = (6/13) * 7.15 = 3.3 million
