Question 99
If there are 259210 literate females in City 5, then what is the total population of City 5?
Solution
Let total literate population in city 5 = $$16x$$
=> Number of literate females in city 5 = $$\frac{7}{16}\times16x=7x$$
According to ques, => $$7x=259210$$
=> $$x=\frac{259210}{7}=37030$$
% of literate population in city 5 = 92%
=> Total population in city 5 = $$16x\times\frac{100}{92}$$
= $$\frac{1600}{92}\times37030=644,000$$
=> Ans - (A)
