16 + 24 + 12 + x + 1.4x = 100

52 + 2.4x = 100

2.4x = 48

x = 20

1.4x = 28

Percentage of number of persons visited temple on Wednesday = 20%

Percentage of number of persons visited temple on Thursday = 28%

Let the total number of persons visited on all 5 days = n

Number of persons visited on Wednesday = 20% of n

Number of persons visited on Thursday = 28% of n

According to question,

(28 - 20)% of n = 880

8% of n = 880

n = 11000

Total number of persons visited on Wednesday = 11000 * 20/100 = 2200

Let number of female = p

number of male = 1.2p

p + 1.2p = 2200

2.2p = 2200

p = 1000

Number of persons visited on Thursday = 28% of 11000 = 3080

Number of male visited on Thursday = 3080 * 1/2 = 1540

Required number = 1000 + 1540 = 2540
