SSC CGL - 21 April 2022 - Shift 1 • Quantitative Aptitude • Q52

The breakup of the total number of employees of a company working in different offices (A to E), in degrees is given in the pie chart.

Total number of employees = 2400.

If 40% of the number of employees in office A are shifted equally to office B and E, then what will be the sum of the number of employees in B and C?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is option 1 i.e. 648

Calculations:

40% of the number of employees of office A

⇒ 40% of 126/300 × 2400 = 336

Number of employees shifted to offices B and E from A = 336/2 = 168

Required value of B = 2400 × (18/360) = 120

= 120 + 168 = 288

Required sum = Number of employees in B + number of employees in C

⇒ 288 + 360 = 648
