Answer / andal

12(1/3) = 4 so women = 4
==>men = 12-4 = 8
if team needs 20% of women then men Will be 80%
consider u want to hire "x" men
so,
(12+x)(80/100) = 8 + x
so, x= 8

Answer / papun_satyajit

Women 4
If 4 is 20%
Then 80% is 4*4=16
Men 16
now men available = 12-4 = 8
So more men required = 16 - 6 =8
ANS:8

Answer / anil menon

total women=1/3*12 = 4 => rest 8 is men.

Let A be total team strength.

so A * 20% = 4 (since women number is constant)

therefore A = 4/(20%)= 20
men to be hired = 20-8 = 12
