Solution

The correct option is D 92
No. of kingdoms in the empire =23.
No. of ministers in one kingdom =20.

∴ Total number of ministers in the empire =23×20=460.

20% of all the ministers are males.
Now, we know,
20% =20100=15.

So, number of male ministers in the knigdom =
15×460 =4605=92.

Therefore, the total number of male ministers in the empire is 92.
