Solution

The correct option is C 421
Total number of employees = 856

Number of female employees = 435

Number of male employees = Total number of employees – Number of female employees

= 856 – 435

Let's subtract the numbers using vertical subtraction.

Let's place the numbers according to their place values and then subtract them.

Therefore, the total number of male employees is 421.
