Download Solution PDFGiven:
Total population of the given states = 32760000
Calculation:
Total percentage as per the pie chart is 100%
⇒ 100% = 32760000
⇒ 1% = 327600
As per the question,
The population of Arunachal Pradesh,
⇒ 25 × 327600
The population of Uttar Pradesh,
⇒ 15 × 327600
Now female in Arunachal Pradesh is 3/8
and female in Uttar Pradesh is 2/5
⇒ 25 × 327600 × 3/8 = 15 × 327600 × 2/5
⇒ 25:16
∴ The ratio of the number of females in Arunachal Pradesh to the number of females in Uttar Pradesh was 25 ∶ 16.
