Answer:
Correct Answer: D
Solution:
- Let number of men and women working in marketing department be 7x and 5x, respectively. From above, it is clear that $ 7x+5x=18% $ of 1800
$ \Rightarrow $ $ 12x=324 $
$ \Rightarrow $ $ x=27 $
$ \therefore $ Number of men working in marketing department $ =7\times 27=189 $
