Solution

Let's solve this step by step:

  1. Let's assume the total population of village A is P. According to the problem, 40% of P are females, so 60% of P are males.

  2. The difference between the number of males and females in village A is 500. So, we can write the equation: 0.60P - 0.40P = 500. Solving this equation gives P = 2500.

  3. So, the number of males in village A is 0.60 * 2500 = 1500 and the number of females in village A is 0.40 * 2500 = 1000.

  4. The number of males in village B is double the number of males in village A, so there are 2 * 1500 = 3000 males in village B.

  5. The number of males and females in village B is equal, so there are also 3000 females in village B.

  6. Therefore, the total number of females in both villages is 1000 (from village A) + 3000 (from village B) = 4000.

So, the answer is (b) 4000.
