Answer:
3000
Step-by-step explanation:
total population = 5000
let the male population be x
male population increased by 10%
x + (10/100)*x = x + x/10 = 11x/10
female by 15%
5000-x +15/100(5000-x)
so,
11x/10 + 5000 - x + 15/100(5000 -x) = 5600
5000 +750 -5600 = 15x -110x + 100x /100
15000 = 5x
x = 3000
3000 males and 2000 females
