Figure 1 depicts the percentage of the total number of male and female athletes from the given five countries: Australia, Brazil, Canada, China, and Italy who participated in the Tokyo Olympics in the year 021.
The total number of athletes who participated from the given five countries is 32400
In Figure 2, the percentage of the number of female athletes from the same five countries who participated in the Tokyo Olympics in the year 2021 are given as under:
If the total number of female athletes who participated in 2021 Olympics from the given five countries were 15000, then how many countries had the number of male athletes less than the number of female athletes?
It is given that theĀ total number of athletes who participated from the given five countries is 32400.Ā
From figure 1, we can easily find the total number of athletes for each of the five countries.
Let the number of total female athletes from these five countries be 100x. Then we will get this table:
In the question,Ā it's given thatĀ the total number of female athletes who participated in 2021 Olympics from the given five countries were 15000.
Hence, 100x = 15000 => x = 150
Hence, we get this following table:
From the table, we can see that 3 countries (Canada, China, and Italy)Ā had the number of male athletes less than the number of female athletes.
