Question

Literacy rate in india is measured after which age

Answer 1

Literacy rate in India is defined as the total percentage of population of an area aged seven (7) years and over who can read and write and also understand a short simple statement on his/her everyday life. Generally, apart from India, 'literacy' also encompasses 'numeracy', the ability to make simple arithmetic calculations.

The formula for the calculation of literacy rate is:

$\frac{number of poeple aged 7 and above}{total population}$
