Question

70% of the employees in a firm are men. 30% of men and 20% of women employees opt for voluntary retirement. What is the percentage of the total number of employees continue in service?

• A. 70%
• B. 27%
• C. 73%
• D. 30%

Answer 1

Answer:

C. 73%

Total employees = 100

Men = 70,

Women = 30

Men in service = 70 x 0.7 = 49

Women in service = 30 x 0.8 = 24

Total in service = 49 + 24 = 73

Percentage in service = (73/100) x 100 = 73%
