Study the table and answer the given questions.
In 2009, if the difference between number of male qualified candidates and female qualified candidates was 72, what was the number of appeared candidates in 2009 ?
In 2009, let the number of male qualified candidates = 9x
Female qualified candidates = 5x
Difference between male and female qualified candidates = 9x - 5x = 72
=> x = 72/4 => x = 18
Thus, total no. of qualified candidates in 2009 = 9x + 5x = 14*18
= 252
% of qualified candidates in 2009 = 42%
No. of appeared candidates in 2009 = 252*$$\frac{100}{42}$$ = 600
