    Solution :

    Total number of male candidates who secured qualifying marks in SSC-CGL from Varanasi \[13000\times \frac{3}{8}=4875\] Patna\[=13000\times \frac{14}{26}\times \frac{3}{5}=4200\] Ranchi\[=13000\times \frac{10}{26}\times \frac{1}{4}=1250\] Pune\[=13000\times \frac{12}{26}\times \frac{2}{5}=2400\] Lucknow\[=13000\times \frac{8}{26}\times \frac{5}{12}\approx 1667\] Surat\[=13000\times \frac{14}{26}\times \frac{9}{16}\approx 3938\] Bhopal\[=13000\times \frac{16}{26}\times \frac{4}{7}\approx 4571\] Required total number of male candidates who secured qualifying marks in SSC-CGL from all the cities = 4875 + 4200' + 1250 + 2400 + 1667 + 3938 + 4571 = 22901
