The following pie chart shows the percentage distribution of a total of 1600 employees in different departments of a
company. The table shows the ratio of male to female employees in different departments. Study the information and answer
the question that follows. What is the percentage of the number of employees in production department to the number of female employees of all the departments taken together? (correct to one decimal place)
59.1%
Step 1: Determine the number of employees in the production department (from the pie chart).
Step 2: Use the male-to-female ratio for each department (from the table) to calculate the total number of female employees across all departments.
Step 3: The percentage is calculated as:
Percentage=(Employees in Production/Total Female Employees)×100
Production employees = 30% of 1600=480
Total female employees:
- HR: 80 IT: 144, Accounts: 280, Marketing: 128, Production: 180
- Total = 80+144+280+128+180=812
Percentage:
- Percentage=(480/812)×100≈59.1%
Final Answer:
The percentage is 59.1%.
