The number of female employees in company C is what percent more than the number of male employees in company E?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B
Explanation
The correct answer is option 2 i.e. 60
Number of female employees in company C = (7/15) × 360 = 168
Number of male employees in company E = (3/8) × 280 = 105
Required solution:
{(168 - 105)/105} × 100 = (63/105) × 100
⇒ (9/15) × 100 = 60%
