The correct answer is

3,50,000

Given:

Population below poverty line in village D is 42,000.

Calculation:

Let the total population of the village is x.

Population of the village D is 20% of the total population.

60% of the population of the village D is below poverty line.

According to question

20% of x × 60% = 42,000

⇒ 1200x/10000 = 42,000

⇒  x = (42000 × 10000)/1200

⇒  x = 3,50,000

∴ T he total population in all the six villages taken together is 3,50,000.
