In a prominent organization ALPHA, 1/5th of the total employees are Sr. Executive and 35% are Executive. If 48 Executive get promoted to Sr. Executive, the number of Sr. Executive will be 22% of total employees. How many employees are there in the company? Correct Answer <p>2400</p>

Calculation:

Let us suppose there are X employees in company. 

If 48 Executive get promoted to Sr. Executive, there will be

22% of total employees who are Sr. Executive instead of 20%

(1/5th of total employees = 20% of total employees)

⇒ 48 represents 2% employees of ALPHA.

48 = X × (2/100)

X = 4800/2

X = 2400

∴ There are 2400 employees in the organization.
