    Answer:

    The total number of registered doctors was 167,722.

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Total number of doctors:

    The total number of doctors is given by x.

    31.6% of all registered doctors were female. 53,000 female doctors.

    This means that:

    0.316x = 53000

    What was the total number of registered doctors?

    We have to solve the above equation for x. So

    x = \frac{53000}{0.316}

    x = 167722

    The total number of registered doctors was 167,722.
