Given:

Total population of the given states = 32760000

Calculation: 

Total percentage as per the pie chart is 100%

⇒ 100% = 32760000

⇒ 1% = 327600

As per the question, 

The population of Arunachal Pradesh,

⇒ 25 × 327600

The population of Uttar Pradesh, 

⇒ 15 × 327600

Now female in Arunachal Pradesh is 3/8

and female in Uttar Pradesh is 2/5

⇒  25 × 327600 × 3/8 = 15 × 327600 × 2/5

⇒ 25:16

∴ The ratio of the number of females in Arunachal Pradesh to the number of females in Uttar Pradesh was 25 ∶ 16.
