Question 76

If the average number of male athletes from all the given five countries 4000, then what was the average number of female athletes from Italy and Canada?

Solution

It is given that the total number of athletes who participated from the given five countries is 32400.

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, it's given that the average number of male athletes from all the given five countries 4000, which implies the total number of male athletes = (4000*5) = 20000

Hence, the number of total female athletes from these five countries = (32400 - 20000) = 12400

=> 100x = 12400 => x = 124

the average number of female athletes from Italy and Canada is (25x+14x)/2 = 19.5x =19.5 * 124 = 2418

The correct option is D
