    1. 18500
    2. 20500
    3. 22000
    4. 20000
Correct Option: C

As per the given pie chart in question ,
Below poverty line population of the village ‘X’ = 12160
Percent of Below poverty line population of the village ‘X’ = 38%
Let Total population of village X = y
Percent of population of the village ‘X' = 16%
Percent of the population of village ‘S' = 11%
38% of Total population of village X = 12160

y × 38
= 12160
100

⇒ y =
12160 × 100
= 32000
38

∵ 16% ≡ $ 32000
∴ 11% ≡
32000
× 11 = 22000
