Answer 2

Answer:1:5

Explanation:

let's assume, Total employees = 24, among them 9 are males and 15 are females. so the ratio is 3:5,

Now among them Marketing : Finance is 3:1, so the total employees in marketing will be 18 and in finance will be 6,

Females ratio in Marketing/Finance = 2:1, so it should be equal to total females that is 15, so the females in marketing are 10 & in fianance 5,

We have 6 employees in finance among them 5 are females, so the males in finance department is only 1.

So the ratio of male / Female in Finance department is 1:5
