Direction: Study the following table carefully and answer the question given below.
-
What is the respective ratio of the total number of adult males in the societies A and B together to the total number of adult males in the societies E and F together?
-
- 14 : 17
- 17 : 14
- 75 : 79
- 79 : 75
Correct Option: B
Total number of adult males in the society A and B= (250 + 400) - (60 + 165) = 650 - 225 = 425
Total number of adult males in the society E and F = (280 + 325) - (86 + 69) = (180 + 325) - (86 + 69) = 505 - 155 = 350
Hence, required ratio = 425 : 350 = 17 : 14
