Total Fertility Rate = 5 ΣQuinquennial ASFR’s

ASFR = \(\frac {\textit{No.of live births occurring in the year to women in the specified age group}}{\textit{Average population of women in the specified age group in the year}} \times 1000\)

ASFR(15-19) = \(\frac{1204}{14000}\) x 1000 = 86.

T.F.R (A) = 5 x 626 = 3130

T.F.R.(B) = 5 x 559 = 2795

Here TFR (A) > TFR (B) 

∴ City A is more fertile than City B
