How many employees have their salary more than four times their other incomes?

Options:

3

1

4

Correct Answer:

Explanation:

Income  other than salary for A = 66000 - 52000 = 14000

4 times of 14000 = 56000 > 52000

Income  other than salary for B = 59000 - 48500 = 10500

4 times of 10500 = 42000 < 52000

Income  other than salary for C = 52000 - 42000 = 10000

4 times of 10000 = 40000 < 42000

Income  other than salary for D = 40000 - 31000 = 9000

4 times of 9000 = 36000 > 31000

Income  other than salary for E = 31700 - 25000 = 6700

4 times of 6700 = 26800 > 25000

2 employees have their salary more than four times their other incomes i.e A & B

Ans :- 2
