Let the total population of State R be x million. Then, population of State R above poverty line = [(100 - 24)% of x] million = 76 x x million 100 And so, male population of State R above poverty line = 2 x 76 x x million 5 100 But, it is given that male population of State R above poverty line = 1.9 million. 2 x 76 x x = 1.9 x = 5 x 100 x 1.9 = 6.25. 5 100 76 x 2 Total population of State R = 6.25 million.
