Question
Population of a city is 148000 and out of which 78000
are males and 40 percent population is literate. If 55 percent males are literate, then what is the number of females who are literate?Solution
Female population = 148000 - 78000 = 70000 40% of population are literate, ( 40 / 100 ) × 148000 = 59200 55% of male population are literate, ( 55 / 100 ) × 78000 = 42900 So, literate female population = 59200 - 42900 = 16300 ∴ The literate female population is 16300.
