Solution :
Percentage of the male lecturers recruited in state B in the year 2021 = 35%
From the graph, the number of lecturers recruited in state B in the year 2021 = 5500
Percentage of the female lecturers recruited in state B in the year 2021 = 100% – 35% = 65%
Number of the female lecturers recruited in state B in the year 2021 = $\frac{65}{100}\times 5500$ = 3575
Hence, the correct answer is 3575.
