To find the output per capita of Charlston, we need to divide the GDP by the total population.

Total population = female population + employed males + dependent males 
Total population = 2.8 million + 1.08 million + 1.52 million 
Total population = 5.4 million

Output per capita = GDP / total population 
Output per capita = $298 billion / 5.4 million 
Output per capita = $55,185
