Detailed Solution
Download Solution PDFCalculations:
From the line graph given, we can get the total population of villages (M, N, O, P, Q ,and R).
From the table provided, We can find 4 parameters only:
1. Literate people of a particular village (Ratio of literate to illiterate)
2. Illiterate people of a particular village (Ratio of literate to illiterate)
3. Male population of a particular village (Percentage of male population)
4. Female population of a particular village (Percentage of male population)
All Data that can be derived from the Line graph and Tabulation is summarised below.
As we can see from the data we can't infer number of literate males.
Hence, The ratio can't be determined

R |
3000 |
60% |
1800 |
We can not find ratio of literate and illiterate male From M,N and O.
⇒ Male from village P, Q and R = 2000 + 2200 + 1800 = 6000
∴ The ratio can't be determined
