A. 25%
B. 27.5%
C. 28.5%
D. 31.5%

Answer: Option C

Explanation:

Number of males in U.P

=[3of (15% of N)]  =3x15 = 9 xN.
55100100

where N = 3276000.

Number of males in M.P

=[3of (20% of N)]  =3x20x N   = 15 xN.
44100100


Number of males in Goa

=[3of (12% of N)]  =3x12x N   = 4.5 xN.
88100100

Total numbers of males in these three states
= (9 + 15 + 4.5) xN
100
= 28.5 x N/100

Therefore Required Percentage

=[
(28.5 xN)
100
x 100]% = 28.5%.
