Answers: 1.c 2.b 3.c 4.e 5.b
Solution
1. Number of female employees in B and C= 2100*(75/25)=6300
Total number of employees in B and
C=22000*(65/100)=14,300
Percentage=(6300/14300)*100= 44% (Approx.) (c)
2. Number of married female employees in company A= (40/100)*2100= 840
Total number of people working in
company A= 7700
Total number of married people
working in company A=2500
So, Number of married male employees= 2500-840= 1660
Total males in company A= 7700-2100=
5600
Number of unmarried male employees=
5600-1660= 3940
Percentage= 70% (Approx.) (b)
3. 1/3th of the female employees are living with their
husbands= 2800
34% of the females are unmarried or
66% are married.
Married females= 8400*(66/100)= 5544
Female employees who are married but not living with their husbands=
5544-2800
= 2744 (c)
4. Employees in the age group 30 years and above is as follows
A- 7700-20% of 7700= 6160
B- 5500-25% of 5500= 4125
C- 8800-30% of 8800= 6160
Answer is both A and C (e)
5. Present staff strength of C= 8800
After 20% increase in 2015:
1.20*8800= 10560
After 10% decrease in 2016: 0.90*10560=
9504
Increase in staff strength of C= 9504-8800= 704 (b)
