Total stacks of rice "n=10,000"

Total no. of famalies "=15,000+12,000+7,000=34,000"


Probability of town A families "P_1=\\dfrac{15000}{34000}=0.44117"


Probability of town B families "P_2=\\dfrac{12000}{34000}=0.3529"41


Probability of town C families "P_3=\\dfrac{7000}{34000}=0.20588"



Number of stacks distributed to town "A= P_1\\times n=0.44176\\times 10000=4411.76"


Number of stacks distributed to town "B= P_2\\times n=0.352941\\times 10000=3529.41"


Number of stacks distributed to town "C= P_3\\times n=0.20588\\times 10000=2058.8"
