Concept Used:

X% = X/100

Calculation:

Female coffee drinker in town A = 5% of 10,000

⇒  \(\frac{5}{100}\)× 10,000 = 500

Female coffee drinker in town B = 15% of 20,000

⇒  \(\frac{15}{100}\)× 20,000 = 3000

⇒ Total female coffee drinker in town A & B = 500 + 3000 = 3500

∴ The correct answer is 3500
