What is the minimum possible population that the least populated district could have?
a. 10,700
b. 10,800
c. 10,900
d. 11,000
e. 11,100
if we need to distribute population in 11 districts and one city should have the least possible under the 10% condition.
then there should not be any difference in the population of remaining cities, Then only that city have the least population
Let x be the population of district with least population
x + 1.1 ( 10 ) x = 132,00, { on solving this }
x = 11,000
This problem can be done with plug in answer choices as well,
( Important thing to consider that the population of the remaining 10 cities will be equal }
