एक जिले की जनसंख्या 327000 है, जिसमें 224000 पुरुष हैं। 65% जनसंख्या साक्षर है। यदि 65% पुरुष साक्षर हैं, तो साक्षर महिलोओं का प्रतिशत कितना होगा?
Detailed Solution & Logic
Correct Answer:
65%
Total population = 327,000
Males = 224,000, Females = 327,000 - 224,000 = 103,000
Total literates = 65% of 327,000 = 212,550
Literate males = 65% of 224,000 = 145,600
Literate females = 212,550 - 145,600 = 66,950
Percentage of literate females = \(\frac{66,950}{103,000} \times 100 \) 65%
Answer = 65%
