The population of a village is 8000. Out of these, 80% are literate and of these literate people, 40% are women. Find the ratio the number of literate women to the total population?

बेरीज

उत्तर

Population of the village = 8000 people

literate people = 80% of population

= 80% of 8000

= `80/100 xx 8000`

literate people = 6400

Percentage of women = 40%

Number of women = 40% of literate people

= `40/100 xx 6400`

= 2560

∴ literate women:Total population

= 2560:8000

= 8:25
