Given:

Total number of females from 2016 to 2020:

Females = 900 + 1000 + 1020 + 1100 + 1200

Total number of educated females from 2016 to 2020:

Educated females = 600 + 820 + 950 + 980 + 1000

Formula used:

Percentage of educated females = (Total educated females / Total females) × 100

Calculation:

Total females = 900 + 1000 + 1020 + 1100 + 1200 = 5220

Total educated females = 600 + 820 + 950 + 980 + 1000 = 4350

Percentage of educated females = (4350 / 5220) × 100

⇒ Percentage of educated females = 83.33%

∴ The percentage of the total number of educated females to the total number of females is0.8333.
