ANSWERS
Solutions (1-5)
1. (4)
Required percentage = 9%of4000/14%of7500 * 100 = 34 (approx)

2. (5)
Female employees of scale VI = 14% of 7500 – 9% of 4000 = 690
Male employees of scale I = 24% of 4000 = 960
Required ratio = 690 : 960 = 23 : 32

3. (3)
Male employees in grade V = 12% of 4000 = 480
Total employees of grade V = 12% of 7500 = 900
Female employees of grade V = 900 – 480 = 420
Required ratio = 480 : 420 = 8 : 7

4. (2)
Number of females in grade II = 15% of 7500 – 18% of 4000 = 405

5. (1)
Number of females in scale III = 19% of 7500 – 16% of 4000 = 785
Number of females in scale IV = 10% of 7500 – 11% of 4000 = 310
Required sum = 785 + 310 = 1095
