    D) 247
    E) None of these
    View Answer
    D) 247
    Explanation:

    In Gurgaon, Software % = 100 – (20+22+20) = 38%
    Required Ans = (30/100)*380 + (38/100)*350
  2. If in Delhi, employees who work in Accounts department are 40% more than employees who work in HR department, then what is the number of employees who work in Software department in Delhi?

    C) 176
    D) 147
    E) None of these
    View Answer
    B) 153
    Explanation:

    Let % of employees who work in HR in Delhi is x%. So
    [28/100 * 450 – x/100 * 450]/[ x/100 * 450] * 100 = 40
    Which is [(28-x)/x] * 100 = 40
    Solve, x = 20
    So % of employees who work in Software is 100 – (20+18+28) = 34%
    So required ans = 34/100 * 450
  3. If number of employees in Bengaluru is 10% less than number of employees in Hyderabad, then what is the difference between number of employees who work in Accounts department in these 2 cities and who work in Finance department in these 2 cities?

    View Answer
    B) 104
    Explanation:

    Total employees in Bengaluru and Hyderabad = 2130 – (450+380+350) = 950
    So if in Hyderabad, employees is x, then in Bengaluru – 90/100 * x
    So x + 90x/100 = 950
    Solve, x = 500, so in Hyderabad = 500, and in Bengaluru = 90/100 * 500 = 450
    So required answer = [32/100 * 450 + 35/100 * 500] – [20/100 * 450 + 25/100 * 500]
    Or = 12/100 * 450 + 10/100 * 500

    Bengaluru – (20+32)/100 * 450 = 234
    Hyderabad – (25+35)/100 * 500 = 300
    Gurgaon – (22+20)/100 * 350 = 147

    Number of employees who work in Software in Gurgaon = 38/100 * 350 = 133
    So number of employees who work in Accounts in Mumbai is 133+19 = 152
