This solution explains how to find the difference between the total number of employees present in specific offices on certain days, using the provided attendance data.

Attendance Data Overview

The table below shows the number of employees present on different weekdays across five offices: A, B, C, D, and E.

Days A B C D E
Monday 139 147 211 114 118
Tuesday 141 189 164 189 151
Wednesday 115 141 159 156 136
Thursday 89 223 120 147 113
Friday 187 93 257 160 124

Calculating Total Attendance for C and D on Tuesday

First, we need to find the total number of employees present in offices C and D combined on Tuesday.

  • Number of employees in Office C on Tuesday: 164
  • Number of employees in Office D on Tuesday: 189

The total attendance is calculated as:

\text{Total}_{C,D,Tue} = \text{Attendance}_C + \text{Attendance}_D
\text{Total}_{C,D,Tue} = 164 + 189 = 353

Calculating Total Attendance for A and E on Thursday

Next, we find the total number of employees present in offices A and E combined on Thursday.

  • Number of employees in Office A on Thursday: 89
  • Number of employees in Office E on Thursday: 113

The total attendance is calculated as:

\text{Total}_{A,E,Thu} = \text{Attendance}_A + \text{Attendance}_E
\text{Total}_{A,E,Thu} = 89 + 113 = 202

Finding the Difference in Attendance

Finally, we calculate the difference between the two totals calculated above.

\text{Difference} = |\text{Total}_{C,D,Tue} - \text{Total}_{A,E,Thu}|
\text{Difference} = |353 - 202|
\text{Difference} = 151

Therefore, the difference between the total number of employees present in offices C and D together on Tuesday and the total number of employees present in offices A and E together on Thursday is 151.
