Total employees = 3000
Dept % – Ratios:
Accounts: 18%, M:F = 11:7
Marketing: 23%, M:F = 12:11
IT: 27%, M:F = 14:13
Administration: 20%, M:F = 3:2
Others: 12%, M:F = 4:5
Formula used:
Dept emp = total × %/100
Male = (M/(M+F)) × dept emp
Female = (F/(M+F)) × dept emp
x% = ((Maletotal – Femaletotal)/Femaletotal) ×100
Calculations:
⇒ Administration employees =
⇒ Administration M =
⇒ Marketing employees =
⇒ Marketing M =
⇒ IT employees =
⇒ IT M =
⇒ Admin employees =
⇒ Admin M =
⇒ Others employees =
⇒ Others M =
⇒ Male_total = 330+360+420+360+160 = 1630
⇒ Female_total = 210+330+390+240+200 = 1370
⇒ x =
⇒ x ≈ 19%
∴ The correct answer is option 3.
