The population of a town = 6000
Calculation:
Let, the number of males = m
The number of females, f = 6000 - m
According to the question,
If the number of males increases by 8% and the number of females increases by 10%,
⇒ 8% of m + 10 % of f = 6500 - 6000 = 500
⇒

The number of females, f = 6000 - m
