Answer & Solution
Correct Answer:
Option
A
Percentage of people below 36 years
= (20 + 18.25 + 16.75)%
= 55%
55% = 22 millions
$$\eqalign{ & 1\% = \frac{22}{55} \cr & 12.5\% = \frac{22}{55} \times 12.5 \cr & \,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\, = 5 \text{ millions} \cr}$$
= (20 + 18.25 + 16.75)%
= 55%
55% = 22 millions
$$\eqalign{ & 1\% = \frac{22}{55} \cr & 12.5\% = \frac{22}{55} \times 12.5 \cr & \,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\, = 5 \text{ millions} \cr}$$
