Solution

The correct option is B 6,160
The mean salary of 40 females and 60 males are 5,200 and 6,800 rupees respectively. Therefore the total salary of 40 females and 60 males will be 5,200x40 and 6,800x60 rupees respectively. So the average salary of 40 females and 60 males will be
= ( 2.08,000 + 2,08,000 )/ ( 40+60)
= 616000 / 100
= 6,160
