      A 7 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B 9 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C 5 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D 3 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      E None of these Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      ATQ, Number of males = {11/(11 + 7)} Γ— 7200 = 4400 Number of females = {7/(11 + 7)} Γ— 7200 = 2800 According to question, 4400 : (2800 + 400) = 33 : x 4400 : 3200 = 33 : x 11 : 8 = 33 : x Therefore, x = 24 So, (33 βˆ’ x) = 33 βˆ’ 24 = 9
