Answer 2

The ratio of the number of literate women to the total population is 8:25

Step-by-step explanation:

The population of a village is 8000.

Literate percentage = 80%

No. of literate people =$80\% \times 8000$

No. of literate people =$\frac{80}{100} \times 8000=6400$

Out of these 80% , 40% are women

So, No. of literate women = $40\% \times 6400 = \frac{40}{100} \times 6400=2560$

The ratio of the number of literate women to the total population =$\frac{2560}{8000}=\frac{8}{25}=8:25$

Hence the ratio of the number of literate women to the total population is 8:25
