The population of state B = 13% of 6000 = 780
The total number of females below the poverty line of state B = 780 × 5/13 = 300
The population of state C = 26% of 6000 = 1560
The total number of females below the poverty line of state C = 1560 × 4/13 = 480
The sum = 300 + 480 = 780
The answer is 780
