What is the total number of employees in Mumbai and Gurgaon who work in the IT department?
A482
B452
C570
D494 ✓ Correct
Correct answer: (D) 494
Explanation
The total is 494, so the answer is 494.
Mumbai IT is 30% of 760, which is 228.
Gurgaon IT is 100 minus 20 plus 20 plus 22, which is 38%.
So Gurgaon IT is 38% of 700, which is 266.
Adding the two gives 228 plus 266.
That equals 494.
Each city's IT count uses its own total and its own IT percentage before adding.
