Answer 2

Hey!!
This is your answer.

Let the common ratio be x.
So, number of male students = 2x
and, number of female students = 3x

It is given that,
male+female= 2500.

So,
2x+3x = 2500
5x = 2500
x = 500

Now, number of male candidates = 2x = 2×500 = 1000
and, female candidates= 3x = 3×500 = 1500.

Hope It Helps
