The following data describes the staff of a Five Star Corporation across Professional and Managerial grades. The women in the Professional grade number 90 in all, spread across categories that include Legal with 30 and HR with 15. The women in the Managerial grade number 30 in all. There are five times as many men in the Professional grade as there are women in that grade. The Corporation employs a total of 1300 staff across the Professional and Managerial grades together, and these two grades form 8 percent of the total workforce. Based on the data, answer the questions that follow.
How many of the total staff in the Professional and Managerial grades are men?
The number of men is 1180, so the answer is 1180.
The Professional grade has 450 men.
The two grades together have 1300 staff, of which 540 are in the Professional grade.
So the Managerial grade has 1300 minus 540, which is 760 staff.
The Managerial grade has 30 women, so it has 760 minus 30, which is 730 men.
So the total men are 450 plus 730.
That is 1180, so the answer is 1180.
