Question 67

Study the following table carefully and answer the question.
The following table shows the percentage of population infected and the ratio of males and females infected by COVID-19 in six different cities.

If in Haripur, males infected by COVID-19 was 8436 and in Sitapur, females infected by COVID-19 is 30% less than the females infected by COVID-19 in Haripur, then find out the total number of people infected by COVID-19 in Sitapur.

Solution

If in Haripur, males infected by COVID-19 was 8436.

females infected by COVID-19 in Haripur = $$\frac{8436}{6}\times5$$

= $$1406\times5$$

= 7030

In Sitapur, females infected by COVID-19 is 30% less than the females infected by COVID-19 in Haripur.

In Sitapur, females infected by COVID-19 = (100-30)% of 7030

= 70% of 7030

= $$\frac{70}{100}\times7030$$

= $$7\times703$$

= 4921

Total number of people infected by COVID-19 in Sitapur = $$\frac{4921}{1}\times\ \left(2+1\right)$$

= $$4921\times3$$

= 14,763
