Study the table carefully and answer the given questions. Data related to number of employees in 5 different organisations in April 2013
NOTE
(i) Employees of the given companies can be categorized only in three types — Science graduates, Commerce graduates and Arts graduates.
(ii) Few values are missing in the table (indicated by — ). A candidate is expected to calculate the missing value, if it is required to answer the given question, on the basis of the given data and information.
The average number of Science graduate employees and Commerce graduate employees in Company A was
Total number of employees in Company E was 3 times the total number of employees in Company B. If the difference between number of Commerce graduate employees in Company E and that in Company B was 300, what was the total number of employees in Company B ?
Let total no. of employees in company B = 100x
=> total employees in company E = 3*100x = 300x
% of commerce grads in company E = 100-(50+30) = 20%
% of commerce gads in company B = 100-(40+25) = 35%
No. of commerce grads in company E = (20/100)*300x = 60x
No. of commerce grads in company B = (35/100)*100x = 35x
Difference in the no. of commerce grads in both companies = 60x - 35x = 25x = 300 (given)
=> x =300/25 = 12
Total no. of employees in company B = 100*12 = 1200
