The ratio of males and females in a city is 7:8 and the percentage of children among males and females is 25% and 20% respectively.If the number of adult females in the city is 156800, what is the total population?
Correct Answer: 367500
Explanation:
Number of females = 156800 x 100/80 = 196000
∴ Number of males = 7/8 x 196000 = 171500
Total population = 196000 + 171500 = 367500
