The population of a town is 9600. If males are increased by 8% and females are increased by 5% then population will become 10272 after one year. Find the number of males in the town. |
6000 6400 7500 6800 |
6400 |
Increase in population = 10272 - 9600 = 672 % increase = \(\frac{672}{9600}\) × 100 = 7 %
Male Female 8 % 5 % 7 % 2 : 1 3 R → 9600 Males 2 R → 6400 |
