Directions (56-60) : Read the bar graph carefully and answer the following questions.
The bar graph given below shows the no. of employees working from Office and percentage of employees working from home out of total employee in five different companies.
Number of employees working in any company = Employees working from Office + Employees working from Home
Number of employee who are working from Home in company B and D together are what percentage more/less than number of employees working from Office in company C.
Correct Answer :
250/3%
Solution :
The correct option is 250/3%.
Let us analyze the data from the given bar graph, which displays two parameters for five different companies (A, B, C, D, and E):
1. Blue Bar: Number of employees working from Office.
2. Orange Bar: Percentage of employees working from Home out of the total employees.
Data extracted from the bar graph:
• Company A:
- Working from Office = 150
- Working from Home (%) = 60%
- If 60% work from home, then percentage of employees working from office = 100% - 60% = 40%.
- Therefore, total employees in A = 150 / 0.40 = 375.
- Employees working from Home in A = 60% of 375 = 225.
• Company B:
- Working from Office = 280
- Working from Home (%) = 30%
- Percentage of employees working from office = 100% - 30% = 70%.
- Total employees in B = 280 / 0.70 = 400.
- Employees working from Home in B = 30% of 400 = 120.
• Company C:
- Working from Office = 180
- Working from Home (%) = 40%
- Percentage of employees working from office = 100% - 40% = 60%.
- Total employees in C = 180 / 0.60 = 300.
- Employees working from Home in C = 40% of 300 = 120.
• Company D:
- Working from Office = 210
- Working from Home (%) = 50%
- Percentage of employees working from office = 100% - 50% = 50%.
- Total employees in D = 210 / 0.50 = 420.
- Employees working from Home in D = 50% of 420 = 210.
• Company E:
- Working from Office = 300
- Working from Home (%) = 80%
- Percentage of employees working from office = 100% - 80% = 20%.
- Total employees in E = 300 / 0.20 = 1500.
- Employees working from Home in E = 80% of 1500 = 1200.
Step-by-step Calculation:
1. Total number of employees working from Home in company B and D together:
2. Number of employees working from Office in company C = 180.
3. Calculate how much percentage the employees working from Home in B and D together are more than the employees working from Office in C:
Thus, the required value is 250/3%.
