Explanation

The sex ratio of 940 females per 1000 males was India's sex ratio according to the 2011 Census. This measures the number of females per thousand males in the population. A ratio below 1000 indicates more males than females, which reflects gender imbalance issues. The distractors (775, 1100, 1062) are either too low or unrealistically high for India's demographic profile.
