Solution:

  • Percentage of women in country $ B=\frac{\frac{5\times 2880}{16}}{2880}\times 100=31.25 $ % in country $ D=\frac{\frac{2\times 3575}{5}}{3575}\times 100=40 $ % in country $ E=\frac{\frac{2054\times 6}{13}}{2054}\times 100=46.15 $ % in country $ G=\frac{\frac{3720\times 7}{15}}{3720}\times 100=46.66 $ % in country $ H=\frac{\frac{5\times 3360}{14}}{3360}\times 100=35.71 $ % Hence, number of women employees in country H is the second lowest.
