Answers
Answer:
The correct answer is Option D.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
The company has 1300 employees (both male and female together)
In female, 32% work in the HR department, 20% in the Finance department and 18% in the Marketing department. The remaining 180 female employees work in the Administration department.
In male, 15% work in the HR department, 27% in Marketing, 25% in Finance, 20% in Administration. The remaining male employees work in the Manufacturing department.
To find:
The average number of employees (male and female) who work in the Marketing, Finance and Administration departments.
Solution:
From given data of female employees we can derive that,
Consider, if female employees =100%
32% are in HR department, 20% in Finance and 18% in Marketing department = 30+20+18=68%
And also given that 180 female employees are in Administration department = the remaining % of female employees = 32%
So, if 32%= 180⇒ 1%=5.625
Then, female employees in HR department = 180
female employees in Finance = 20*5.625 = 112.5
female employees in Marketing = 18*5.625= 101.25
∴ The total number of female employees are 180+180+112.5+101.25= 573.75 ≅ 574.
From this we can say that male employees = 1300-574 = 726
The number of male employees in HR department = 15%= 15*7.26=108.9
The number of male employees in Marketing =27%= 27*7.26=196.02
The number of male employees in Finance= 25%= 25*7.26=181.5
The number of male employees in Administration= 20% = 20*7.26= 145.2
The remaining male employees in Manufacturing department are= 726- 109+196+182+145 = 94.
Hence, the average number of employees (male and female) who work in Marketing, Finance and Administration are
⇒ (196+182+145+101+103+180)÷ 3
⇒304

The correct answer is Option D.
Given:
The company has 1300 employees
female- 32% work in the HR department, 20% in the Finance department and 18% in the Marketing department. The remaining 180 female employees work in the Administration department.
male- 15% work in the HR department, 27% in Marketing, 25% in Finance, 20% in Administration. The remaining male employees work in the Manufacturing department.
To find:
number of employees who work in the Marketing, Finance and Administration departments.
Solution:
lets assume, if female employees =100%
32% are in HR department, 20% in Finance and 18% in Marketing department = 32+20+18=70%
And also given that 180 female employees are in Administration department = the remaining % of female employees = 30%
So, if 30%= 180⇒ 1%=5
Then, female employees in HR department = 180
female employees in Finance = 20*5= 100
female employees in Marketing = 18*5= 90
∴ The total number of female employees are 180+180+100+90= 550
From this we can say that male employees = 1300-550 = 750
The number of male employees in HR department = 15%= 15*7.26=108.9
The number of male employees in Marketing =27%= 27*7.26=196.02
The number of male employees in Finance= 25%= 25*7.26=181.5
The number of male employees in Administration= 20% = 20*7.26= 145.2
The remaining male employees in Manufacturing department are= 726- 109+196+182+145 = 94.
Hence, the average number of employees (male and female) who work in Marketing, Finance and Administration are
⇒ (196+182+145+101+103+180)÷ 3
⇒304
