If the different between the number of people in the age groups (46 - 55) and (16 - 25) is 0.975 million, then the total population (in millions) of the city is:

A. 27 millions

B. 30 millions

C. 22 millions

D. 25 millions

Answer: Option B

Solution(By Examveda Team)

Difference = 0.975 millions
(18.25 - 15)% = 0.975 millions
3.25% = 0.975
$$\eqalign{ & 1\% = \frac{0.975}{3.25} \cr & 100\% = \frac{0.975}{3.25} \times 100 \cr & \,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\, = 30 \text{ millions} \cr} $$
