The table below shows information about male and female employees in five different companies (A, B, C, D and E) and also the percentage of total employees promoted in these five companies. Study the data carefully and answer the following question. Company | Male employees | Female employees | % of employees promoted A | 400 | 350 | 40% B | 260 | 100 | 80% C | 340 | 410 | 60% D | 200 | 300 | 80% E | 240 | 360 | 50% Note: Total employees in a company = male + female employees in that company. Find the ratio of promoted employees in C and E together to the average number of employees in A and D.

  1. 6: 5
  2. 3: 2
  3. 9: 7
  4. 11: 5

Correct answer: 6: 5

Solution

Total employees in C = 340 + 410 = 750, so promoted in C = 60% of 750 = 450. Total employees in E = 240 + 360 = 600, so promoted in E = 50% of 600 = 300; together = 750. Total employees in A = 750 and in D = 500, so their average = (750 + 500)/2 = 625. Thus the required ratio is 750:625 = 6:5.
