Answer:

840 female students

Explanation:

The total percentage of students is 100%, so, the percentage of female students = 100% - 47.5%

=52.5%

Multiply the total no. of students by the percentage to get the no. of female students.

1600 x 52.5%

= 840 female students

You can also obtain the same answer by first multiplying the male percentage to find the no. of male students, then subtracting it from the total 1600.
