The total number of illiterate population is 23536. If 3296 literate women moves to the downtown how much percentage increase of literacy in female is observed? Correct Answer 9%
Given:
Females = 62%
Males = 38%
Calculation:

⇒ Then, Literate female = 36704 + 3296 = 40000
⇒ Percentage increase is (40000 - 36704)/36704 = 8.97% ≈ 9 %
∴ Required percentage increase 9%
