Percentage of male employees earning more than $36000 = 50%
Percentage of employees earning more than $36000 = 50%
TO FIND
Percentage of women earning $36000 or less per year.
SOLUTION
We can simply solve the above problem as follows-
Let the total number of employees in company abc be, 100
So,
Number of male employees = 55% of 100 = 55
Number of female employees = 100-55 = 45
Number of male employees earning more than $36000 = 50% of 55 = 50/100 × 50 = 27.25 = 27
Given,
50 % of the company earns more than $36000,
Number of employees earning more than $36000 = 50% of 100 = 50
Number of women earning more than $36000 = 50 - 27 = 23
Number of women earning less = Total number of female employees - Number of female employees earning more
= 45 - 23 = 22
Hence, the number of female employees earning less than $36000 is 22.
