Question

There were 200 employees in an office in which 150 were married. Total male employees were 160 out of which 120 were married. What was the number of female unmarried employees?

Accepted Answer

Option b: 10. Solution: We are given the following information: - Total employees = 200 - Total married employees = 150 - Total unmarried employees = 200 - 150 = 50 - Total male employees = 160 - Total female employees = 200 - 160 = 40 - Married male employees = 120 - Unmarried male employees = 160 - 120 = 40 To find the number of unmarried female employees: Unmarried female employees = Total unmarried employees - Unmarried male employees Unmarried female employees = 50 - 40 = 10 This corresponds to Option B. Hence, Option B is the correct answer.
