Passage: A recently formed state government aims to enhance development by introducing various welfare programs. To effectively plan these initiatives, the government sought to understand the state’s population distribution across different age groups. The analysis revealed that 30% of the population comprised children aged 0-15, while 17.75% were adolescents aged 16-25. The early adult population (26-35) constituted 17.25%, followed by 14.50% in the age group 36-45. The population aged 46-55 accounted for 14.25%, with the elderly population (56-65 at 5.12% and 66 and above at 1.13%) being relatively lower. To gain further insights, the state government is seeking answers to the following questions:
