Answer:
Correct Answer: D
Solution:
- Total number of employees $ =35000 $
and total number of employees in organisation C
= 31 % of $ 35000=35000\times \frac{31}{100}=10850 $
Similarly, total number of employees in organisation
D = 15% of 35000
$ =35000\times \frac{15}{100}=5250 $
Required percentage $ =\frac{10850}{5250}\times 100%\approx 207% $
