Study the given pie chart and answer the question that follows: The pie chart shows the break-up of the total number of employees of a company in 2019, in five departments A, B, C, D and E. Total number of employees = 4500 If 30% of the employees in department B are transferred to department D. then the difference between the number of employees in department C and D is x, which lies between: Correct Answer 172 and 176

Calculation:

Number of employees are in B = 4500 × 72/360 = 900

Number of employees are in C = 4500 × 81.2/360 = 1015

Number of employees are in D = 4500 × 45.6/360 = 570

Number of employees are in D after inclusion = 570 + 900 × 3/10 = 840

Difference = 1015 - 840 = 175

∴ x lies between 172 and 176
