Calculation:

Number of girls in institute A = 3600 × 18% × 5/(7 + 5) = 270

Number of girls in institute B = 3600 × 24% × 5/(4 + 5) = 480

Number of girls in institute E = 3600 × 16% × 7/(5 + 7) = 336

The average number of girls in Institutes A, B, and E = (270 + 480 + 336)/3 = 362

Number of boys in institute D = 3600 × 22% × 5/(5 + 4) = 440

Now, The difference between the average number of girls in Institutes A, B and E and the number of boys in Institute D

⇒ 440 - 362

⇒ 78 = x

∴ The value of x lies between 70 and 80.
