Study the given pie charts and answer the question that follows.
Number of employees Number of male employees
in office C = 288 in office E = 224
The pie charts show the distribution of total number of employees and the total number of male employees of a company working in its six offices A, B, C, D, E and F
What is the ratio of the total number of male employees in offices C and F to the
number of employees in office B?
Solution
Male employees in Office E = $$\frac{50.4}{360}\times\ Total$$.
This gives the total number of male employees = 1600.
Total male employees in offices C and F = $$\frac{28.8+32.4}{360}\times\ 1600\ =\ 272$$.
Total employees in Office C = $$\frac{43.2}{360}\times\ Total$$.
This gives the Total number of employees = 2400.
Total employees in Office B = $$\frac{64.8}{360}\times\ 2400\ =\ 432.$$
The required ratio = 272:432 = 17:27.
