The number of female teachers in District D is approximately what percent of the total number of teachers (both male & female) in District A?

Answer & Solution
Correct Answer: Option E
$$\eqalign{ & \text{Total number of teachers in:} \cr & \text{A → } \frac{14}{100}\times4500 = 630\cr & \text{B → } \frac{16}{100}\times4500 = 720\cr & \text{C → } \frac{28}{100}\times4500 = 1260\cr & \text{D → } \frac{15}{100}\times4500 = 675\cr & \text{E → } \frac{21}{100}\times4500 = 945\cr & \text{F → } \frac{6}{100}\times4500 = 270\cr} $$

A B C D E F
Males 200 400 600 100 500 100
Females 430 320 660 575 445 170

Female teacher in D = 575
Total number of teacher in A
= 200 + 430
= 630
∴ Required percentage
$$\eqalign{ & = \left(\frac{575}{630}\times100\right)\% \cr & = \frac{5750}{63}\% \cr & = 91.2\% \cr & \approx 90\% \cr} $$
