Solution

The correct option is B 58000

Total number of candidates who appeared for CS and ES together in 2010 =76000+40000=116000.
So, the total number of candidates who appeared for CS and ES together in 2011 =125100×116000=145000
Number of female candidates who appeared for both the exams together in 2011 = 25th of the total number of candidates who appeared for both exams together in 2011 = 25×145000=58000
