Using the data, find the ratio of the total number of male employees in companies C, B, and E to the total number of employees (both males and females) in companies A and B.

Accepted Answer

From the bar graph:
Total employees: A = 240, B = 160, C = 180, D = 260, E = 200
From the table (percentage of females):
A = 40%, B = 60%, C = 20%, D = 50%, E = 80%
Calculate males:
C: Females = 20% of 180 = 36 Males = 180 − 36 = 144
B: Females = 60% of 160 = 96 Males = 160 − 96 = 64
E: Females = 80% of 200 = 160 Males = 200 − 160 = 40
Total males in C, B and E: 144 + 64 + 40 = 248
Total employees in A and B: 240 + 160 = 400
Required ratio: 248 : 400
Simplify by dividing by 8: 31 : 50
Answer: 31:50
