The following data presents the cases of Japanese Encephalitis in five states of India.

If the total number of males affected by Japanese Encephalitis in other states are 87 % more than the average number of males in Odisha, West Bengal, Chhattisgarh and Jharkhand, the total number of males affected in India is:

The correct option is 1,40,880.

From the given bar chart and table showing Japanese Encephalitis cases (in thousands) and the ratio of Male to Female patients across five states:

1. Calculate the number of males affected in each of the four specified states:

• Odisha:
Total persons = 57 thousand = 57,000
Ratio of Male : Female = 12 : 7 (Total parts = 12 + 7 = 19)
Number of males = $\frac{12}{19}\times \mathrm{57,000}=\mathrm{36,000}$

• West Bengal:
Total persons = 45 thousand = 45,000
Ratio of Male : Female = 6 : 3 (Total parts = 6 + 3 = 9)
Number of males = $\frac{6}{9}\times \mathrm{45,000}=\mathrm{30,000}$

• Chhattisgarh:
Total persons = 21 thousand = 21,000
Ratio of Male : Female = 5 : 2 (Total parts = 5 + 2 = 7)
Number of males = $\frac{5}{7}\times \mathrm{21,000}=\mathrm{15,000}$

• Jharkhand:
Total persons = 29 thousand = 29,000
Ratio of Male : Female = 15 : 14 (Total parts = 15 + 14 = 29)
Number of males = $\frac{15}{29}\times \mathrm{29,000}=\mathrm{15,000}$

• Andhra Pradesh:
Total persons = 13 thousand = 13,000
Ratio of Male : Female = 7 : 6 (Total parts = 7 + 6 = 13)
Number of males = $\frac{7}{13}\times \mathrm{13,000}=\mathrm{7,000}$

2. Calculate the average number of males in Odisha, West Bengal, Chhattisgarh, and Jharkhand:

$\text{Sum of males in the 4 states}=\mathrm{36,000}+\mathrm{30,000}+\mathrm{15,000}+\mathrm{15,000}=\mathrm{96,000}$

$\text{Average}=\frac{\mathrm{96,000}}{4}=\mathrm{24,000}$

3. Calculate the number of males affected in other states:
It is given that the males affected in other states are 87% more than this average.

$\text{Males in other states}=\mathrm{24,000}+(87\%\text{ of }\mathrm{24,000})$

$\text{Males in other states}=\mathrm{24,000}+(0.87\times \mathrm{24,000})=\mathrm{24,000}+\mathrm{20,880}=\mathrm{44,880}$

4. Calculate the total number of males affected in India:
Total males in India = (Males in 5 given states) + (Males in other states)

$\text{Total males in 5 states}=\mathrm{36,000}+\mathrm{30,000}+\mathrm{15,000}+\mathrm{15,000}+\mathrm{7,000}=\mathrm{96,000}+\mathrm{7,000}=\mathrm{1,03,000}$

$\text{Total males in India}=\mathrm{1,03,000}+\mathrm{44,880}=\mathrm{1,40,880}$

Thus, the total number of males affected in India is 1,40,880.
