Regarding the pie chart, 80% of the total number amounted to single females. However, a considerable number was seen in the section of women without children just above 50%, whereas with children the figure was twice less. In comparison, married women in both sections made up 20 parts of the total number.
According to the bar chart, extreme poverty was at the age of under 5 for both gender and the number was equal at slightly above 20%. However, at the group age of 5-17, the rate dropped slightly by 5%. The lowest poverty for women was recorded at 45-54 years, while for men it was 75 and above. The difference in numbers was not significant just only 2%. It is also necessary to highlight that poverty for women in three groups age (18-24, 25-30, and 75-up) were at 5% more than for men.
