The number of illiterate females in the population is
  64000(1-65%)(4/(3+4)) = 12800
The number of females in the population is
  64000(1-60%) = 25600
The ratio of illiterate to literate females is
  12800:(25600-12800) = 12800:12800 = 1:1

The ratio of illiterate to literate men is 1:3.

% of Illiterate = (100-65)=35%
Therefore, 35% of 64000=22400
Total ratio of Illiterate persons=3+47=50
Illiterate females = 47/50 of 22400 = 21056
Total no. Of females = (100-60)%=40%
Therefore, 40% of 64000=25600
Total number of literate females = 25600-21056=4544
Ratio of Illiterate to literate females = 21056:4544
Therefore the ratio is 329:71
