Explanatory Answer
The total number of male and female test cases in 1980 = 1000
We are given that there are 250 females from age 20-30 in 1980 and in 2000 these females age are from 40-50 but only 175 are alive in 2000.
In 2000 there were 175 females from age 40-50. If we assume that out of these, 30 females were of age 48 years in 2000 and they died in 2005, then there are 30 females who died at the age of 53.
If we assume that out of the 175 females, 30 females were of age 42 years in 2000, and they died in 2005, then 30 females died at the age of 47. Now, if we assume that there are 15 females of age 42 and 15 females of age 48 in the year 2000, and they all died in 2005, then we have 15 females who died at the age of 47 and 15 females who died at the age of 53.
So we can see that there are many cases possible. We are given that there were 250 females aged 20-30 in 1980, and in 2010, these females ages are from 50-60, but only 145 are alive in 2010.
In 2010 there were 145 females from age 50-60. If we assume that out of these, 40 females were of age 58 years in 2010 and they died in 2015, then there are 40 females who died at the age of 63.
If we assume that out of the 145 females, 40 females are of age 52 years age in 2010, and they died in 2015, then 40 females died at the age of 57. Now, if we assume that there are 15 females of age 52 and 25 females of age 58 in the year 2010, and they all died in 2015, then we have 15 females who died at the age of 57 and 25 females who died at the age of 63.
So we can see that again, there are many cases possible. In the first case, the range of values possible is from 0 to 30. In the second case, the range of values possible is from 0 to 40. So in total, we get a range of possible values from 0 to 70.
Thus, only one possible value of this question is not possible.
Hence, 30
