What is the respective ratio of number of men working in the Accounts department to the total number of employees working in that department? |
A) 9 : 2
B) 7 : 6
C) 2 : 9
D) 6 : 7
E) None of these
Correct Answer: C
Solution :
Let number of men and women in Accounts department be 2x and 7x, respectively. |
Then, \[2x+7x=17\]% of 1800 |
\[\Rightarrow \] \[9x=306\] |
\[\Rightarrow \] \[x=34\] |
\[\therefore \] Number of men in Accounts department |
\[=2\times 34=68\] |
Total number of employees in Accounts department = 306 |
\[\therefore \] Required ratio = 68: 306 = 2: 9 |
