Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is option 3 i.e. 83.33.

According to the given table,

Total number of educated females = 600 + 820 + 950 + 980 + 1000 = 4350

Total number of females over all the years = 900 + 1000 + 1020 + 1100 + 1200 = 5220

Required percentage = 43505220×100{4350 \over 5220} \times 100 = 83.33%

Hence the percentage of the total number of educated females to the total number of females over all the years is 83.33.
