Question:

In a locality the ratio of number of males and females is 7 : 6. If there are 1050 males, then what is the total population of the locality?

Options:

1650

1850

1950

2000

Correct Answer:

1950

Explanation:

Ratio of number of males and females is 7 : 6

Males are 1050

Assume x be total number of people, Males = 7x/13 and Females = 6x/13

Thus 7x/13 = 1050

x= 13*150 = 1950

The correct answer is Option (3) → 1950
