Solution

Total number of projects handled by all the companies together in 2007

= 137 + 168 + 237 + 158 + 182 = 882

Ratio of governmental and non governmental projects handled in 2007 = 13 : 8

=> Number of governmental projects that were handled by all the given companies together in 2007

= $$\frac{13}{13 + 8} \times 882$$

= $$13 \times 42 = 546$$
