Answer 2

Given:

60 of the population of the village is literate and the number of literate people is 2500.

To Find:

What is the population of the village?​

Solution:

A percentage is defined as the fraction times 100 of some part of something. It is denoted by % and percentage and fraction can be changed among themselves.

It is given that the 60 % of the village is literate and the literate people are 2500, let the total number of people in the village be x then we can say that

$60\%of x=2500\\\frac{60}{100}*x=2500\\x=4166.67$

So the value of x comes as a decimal so will take the approximate value which will be 4167

Hence, the population of the village is 4167.
