Correct Answer :

Option B

250/3%

Solution :

The correct answer is 250/3%.

Let's break down the solution step-by-step using the data provided in the bar graph.

1. Understanding the given data from the bar graph:
The blue bars represent the number of employees Working from Office, while the orange bars represent the Percentage of employees working from Home out of total employees.

If Percentage from Home=x%, then Percentage from Office=(100-x)% of total employees.
Therefore, Number of Employees Working from Home=x100-x×Number of Employees Working from Office.

2. Calculate number of employees working from Home in Company B:
From the graph for Company B:
- Employees working from Office = 280
- Percentage working from Home = 30%
- Percentage working from Office = 100%-30%=70%

So, total employees in Company B = 28070×100=400

Number of employees working from Home in Company B = 400-280=120

3. Calculate number of employees working from Home in Company D:
From the graph for Company D:
- Employees working from Office = 210
- Percentage working from Home = 50%
- Percentage working from Office = 100%-50%=50%

So, total employees in Company D = 21050×100=420

Number of employees working from Home in Company D = 420-210=210

4. Total employees working from Home in B and D together:

Total Home (B + D)=120+210=330

5. Number of employees working from Office in Company C:
From the graph for Company C:
- Employees working from Office = 180

6. Calculate the percentage difference:
We need to find how much percentage 330 is more than 180:

Difference=330-180=150

Required Percentage=150180×100%

Required Percentage=56×100%=2503%
