in a village 30% are females 40% are males and number of children are 1200.find the total population of the village​

Answer 1

let total population= x

children population = x30% = 1200

x =1200x30/100

x= 3600

Answer 2

Given,

Population of females in a village is 30%

Population of males in a village is 40%

Population of childrens in a village are 1200

lets assume,

Population of entire village is x

Then, population of childrens in percent is

[100-(40+30]

Then, we can say "30% of x = 1200"

Now, (30/100)*x= 1200

(3x/10) = 1200

x= (1200*10)/3

x = 4000

Hence, the total population of village is 4000
