The given table presents the percentage distribution of teachers and ratio of male to female teachers working in a university in six different subjects (A‐F). There is a total number of 1600 teachers in the University. Based on the data in the table, answer the questions that follow Subject‐wise Distribution of Teachers Subjects Percentage (%) of Teachers Ratio of Male to Female Teachers A 13% 1 : 7 B 18% 5 : 3 C 12% 1 : 3 D 21% 3 : 4 E 14% 9 : 5 F 22% 7 : 9
What is the difference between the total number of teachers in Subject‐F and the total number of male teachers in Subject‐A and Subject‐B together?

Let's break down the problem step by step using the data provided in the table about teachers in the university.
The table shows how the total number of teachers (1600) is distributed among six subjects (A-F) by percentage and the ratio of male to female teachers within each subject.
| Subjects | Percentage (%) of Teachers | Ratio of Male to Female Teachers |
|---|---|---|
| A | 13% | 1 : 7 |
| B | 18% | 5 : 3 |
| C | 12% | 1 : 3 |
| D | 21% | 3 : 4 |
| E | 14% | 9 : 5 |
| F | 22% | 7 : 9 |
The total number of teachers in the university is given as 1600.
To find the number of teachers in a specific subject, we use the percentage given for that subject and the total number of teachers.
For subjects where we need the number of male or female teachers, we use the given ratio. If the ratio of male to female is M:F, the total parts in the ratio are M + F. The number of male teachers is (M / (M+F)) * Total teachers in that subject, and female teachers are (F / (M+F)) * Total teachers in that subject.
Subject F has 22% of the total teachers.
Total teachers in Subject F = $\frac{22}{100} \times 1600$
Total teachers in Subject F = $0.22 \times 1600 = 352$
So, there are 352 teachers in Subject F.
Subject A has 13% of the total teachers.
Total teachers in Subject A = $\frac{13}{100} \times 1600$
Total teachers in Subject A = $0.13 \times 1600 = 208$
The ratio of Male to Female teachers in Subject A is 1:7. Total parts in the ratio = $1 + 7 = 8$.
Number of Male teachers in Subject A = $\frac{1}{8} \times 208$
Number of Male teachers in Subject A = $1 \times \frac{208}{8} = 1 \times 26 = 26$
So, there are 26 male teachers in Subject A.
Subject B has 18% of the total teachers.
Total teachers in Subject B = $\frac{18}{100} \times 1600$
Total teachers in Subject B = $0.18 \times 1600 = 288$
The ratio of Male to Female teachers in Subject B is 5:3. Total parts in the ratio = $5 + 3 = 8$.
Number of Male teachers in Subject B = $\frac{5}{8} \times 288$
Number of Male teachers in Subject B = $5 \times \frac{288}{8} = 5 \times 36 = 180$
So, there are 180 male teachers in Subject B.
Total male teachers in A and B = Male teachers in A + Male teachers in B
Total male teachers in A and B = $26 + 180 = 206$
So, there are 206 male teachers in Subject A and Subject B combined.
We need to find the difference between the total number of teachers in Subject F and the total number of male teachers in Subject A and Subject B together.
Difference = (Total teachers in Subject F) - (Total male teachers in Subject A and B)
Difference = $352 - 206 = 146$
The difference is 146.
The difference between the total number of teachers in Subject F and the total number of male teachers in Subject A and Subject B together is 146.
| Subject | Total Teachers | Male Teachers | Female Teachers |
|---|---|---|---|
| F | 352 | Not needed for final calculation (but can be calculated: $\frac{7}{16} \times 352 = 7 \times 22 = 154$) | Not needed for final calculation (but can be calculated: $\frac{9}{16} \times 352 = 9 \times 22 = 198$) |
| A | 208 | 26 | Not needed for final calculation (but can be calculated: $208 - 26 = 182$) |
| B | 288 | 180 | Not needed for final calculation (but can be calculated: $288 - 180 = 108$) |
Difference = Total teachers (F) - (Male teachers (A) + Male teachers (B))
Difference = $352 - (26 + 180) = 352 - 206 = 146$
This problem requires skills in data interpretation from tables. Key concepts used include:
