Question

Study the information in the following pie charts to answer these questions:

DETAILS OF 1500 EMPLOYEES WORKING IN AN ORGANISATION ON VARIOUS SCALES
Break-up of 1500 Employees Across the Scales

Break-up of 800 Male Employees Across the Scales


What is the ratio between male and female employees respectively working in Scale V?

• A. 7: 8
• B. 2: 1
• C. 8: 7
• D. 1: 2
• E. None of these

Answer 1

The correct option is C 8: 7

Total number of employees working on Scale V
$=\frac{1500\times 12}{100}=180$
Number of male employees on this scale $=\frac{800\times 12}{100}=96$
$\therefore$ Number of Female Employees = 180 – 96 = 84
$\therefore$ Required Ratio = 96 : 84 = 8 : 7
