D18270%16%
E22072.5%15%

What is the ratio of number of employees who prefer travelling by Bus from company C to that of D?

The correct answer is

48 ∶ 13

Calculation:

The number of employees preferring the bus from Company C = \(\dfrac{30 \times 384}{(100 - 30 - 55)}\) = 768

The number of employees preferring the bus from Company D = \(\dfrac{16 \times 182}{14}\) = 208

⇒ Desired ratio = 768 : 208

∴ The ratio of the number of employees preferring to travel by bus from Company C to that from Company D is 48 : 13.
