A city has a population of 300000 out of which 180000 are males. 50% of the population is literate. If 70% of the males are literate, the number of literate females is
Correct Answer: 24000
Explanation:
Total population = 300000
Total number of males = 180000
Total Literates = 50% of total population = 150000
Number of literate males = 70% of males = 126000
∴ Number of literate females = 150000 - 126000 = 24000
