The population of a district is 385000, out of which 168000 are males. 52% of the population is literate. If 21% males are literate, then what percentage of females are literate?

Solution / समाधान
Total population = 385000
Males = 168000
Females = 385000 − 168000 = 217000
Total literate people:
$52%$ of 385000 = $0.52 \times 385000 = 200200$
Male literates:
$21%$ of 168000 = $0.21 \times 168000 = 35280$

Female literates:

$= 200200 - 35280 = 164920$

Now, female literacy percentage:

$= \frac{164920}{217000} \times 100$

$= 76%$

Correct Answer / सही उत्तर:

👉 76%
