    Solution

    Number of male employees working in company B = 760 – 220 = 540 Number of female employees working in company A = 540 x (100/120) = 450 Number of female employees working in company C = 220 x (9/11) = 180 Number of female employees working in company B = 930 – (450 + 180) = 300 Number of male employees working in company A = 880 – (540 + 220) = 120 Number of female employees working in company C = 180 x (75/100) = 135 Number of male employees working in company A = 120 + [120 x (15/100)] = 138 Required difference = 138 – 135 = 3
