Solution 1

The number of females per 1000 males in a region is called the sex ratio.

Solution 2

This is known as the “number of females per 1,000 males in the population”. Therefore, a sex ratio of 1,000 indicates that the two sexes are completely equal. There is an excess of females over males when the ratio is greater than 1,000, and a deficit of females when it is less than 1,000.
