Detailed Solution

943 females per thousand males was the sex ratio of India in 2011.
The sex ratio is defined as the number of women per thousand men in a given area. In other words, it is the ratio of the total number of children per thousand boys in an area. In a society where men and women are equal in number, the sex ratio becomes 1:1, i.e., 1000 women for every 1000 men. According to the census of 2011, the sex ratio in India was 940 females per 1000 males. This low sex ratio shows various social and economic factors. Fewer females per thousand males indicates poor health care facilities, common problems with our health department, and female foeticide, which is still prevalent in our society.
