Show Answer

Answer:

Correct Answer: A

Solution:

  • Total number of assistants = 15 % of 7000 $ =\frac{15}{100}\times 7000=1050 $ Number of direct recruits = 40% of $ 1050=\frac{40}{100}\times 1050 $ $ =420 $
    Now, number of promotee assistants $ =1050-420=630 $ Hence, required difference $ =630-420=210 $
