Show Answer

Answer :

1900

Solution :

Total executives = 10,000
Percentage of executives in C2 = 5%, C5 = 20%
Ratio of executives with and without management degree C2 = 1 : 4, and C5 = 9 : 1.
Executives in C2 = 5/100 × 10000 = 500
Executives in C5 = 20/100 × 10000 = 2000
Executives with Management degree holders in C2 = 1/5 × 500 = 100
Executives with Management degree holders in C5 = 9/10 × 2000=1800
∴ total executives with management degree holders in C2 and C5 = 100 + 1800 = 1900.
