Detailed Explanation & Answer
Total number of students who appeared = 6,00,000
40% of the total students were females = 2,40,000
The remaining (60%) students are males = 3,60,000

Since 40% of the total students (6,00,000) passed which is = 2,40,000
Now, we know that 50% of the total males (3,60,000) passed which is = 1,80,000
Hence, The number of females who passed = 2,40,000 - 1,80,000 = 60,000

Pass percentage among females = (60,000 / 2,40,000) * 100 = 25%
उपस्थित छात्रों की कुल संख्या = 6,00,000
कुल विद्यार्थियों में से 40% महिलाएँ थीं = 2,40,000
शेष (60%) छात्र पुरुष हैं = 3,60,000

चूँकि कुल छात्रों में से 40% (6,00,000) उत्तीर्ण हुए जो = 2,40,000
अब, हम जानते हैं कि कुल पुरुषों (3,60,000) में से 50% उत्तीर्ण हुए, जो = 1,80,000 है
अत: उत्तीर्ण महिलाओं की संख्या = 2,40,000 - 1,80,000 = 60,000

महिलाओं में उत्तीर्ण प्रतिशत = (60,000 / 2,40,000) * 100 = 25%
