Given the following ASFR (per 1000 women) for 5-year age groups: 15-19:20, 20-24:150, 25-29:120, 30-34:80, 35-39:30, 40-44:10, 45-49:5. The TFR (children per woman) is approximately:
A. 2.08
B. 415
C. 1.5
D. 2.075
Answer: Option D
Solution (By JKExamLibrary)
Sum of ASFRs = 415 per 1000. TFR = 5 × 415/1000 = 2075/1000 = 2.075 children per woman.
