The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem step by step, we will first determine the total population of the village, then calculate the number of literate females based on the information provided. ### Step 1: Determine the total number of males in the village. Let the total population of the village be \( P \). Since 60% of the population are males: \[ \text{Number of males} = 0.6P \] ### Step 2: Calculate the number of illiterate males. We know that 30% of the total males are illiterate, and the number of illiterate males is given as 1152. \[ \text{Illiterate males} = 0.3 \times \text{Number of males} = 1152 \] Substituting the number of males: \[ 0.3 \times (0.6P) = 1152 \] \[ 0.18P = 1152 \] ### Step 3: Solve for \( P \). To find \( P \), divide both sides by 0.18: \[ P = \frac{1152}{0.18} = 6400 \] ### Step 4: Calculate the number of females in the village. Since the total population \( P \) is 6400 and 60% are males, the number of females is: \[ \text{Number of females} = P - \text{Number of males} = 6400 - 0.6 \times 6400 = 6400 - 3840 = 2560 \] ### Step 5: Calculate the number of illiterate females. We know that 25% of the total females are illiterate: \[ \text{Illiterate females} = 0.25 \times \text{Number of females} = 0.25 \times 2560 = 640 \] ### Step 6: Calculate the number of literate females. The number of literate females can be calculated by subtracting the number of illiterate females from the total number of females: \[ \text{Literate females} = \text{Number of females} - \text{Illiterate females} = 2560 - 640 = 1920 \] ### Step 7: Compare with Quantity II. Now we compare the number of literate females (1920) with Quantity II (1940): - Quantity I: 1920 - Quantity II: 1940 Since 1920 < 1940, we conclude that Quantity I is less than Quantity II. ### Final Answer: **Quantity I is less than Quantity II.** ---
