Study the pie-chart and answer the question. Distribution (degree-wise) of the number of employees of a company working in 5 departments A, B, C, D and E. The number of employees working in department C is what percentage more than the total number of employees working in D and E? (Your answer should be correct to one decimal place.) |
23.2 20.6 22.8 21.4 |
21.4 |
Number of employees working in C = \(\frac{122.4}{360}\) × 3200 = 1088 Number of employees working in D & E = \(\frac{64.8 + 36}{360}\) × 3200 = \(\frac{100.8}{360}\) × 3200 = 896 Required percentage = \(\frac{1088 - 896 }{896}\) × 100 = \(\frac{192 }{896}\) × 100 = 21.4% |
