In a team of 12 persons, 1/3 are women and 2/3 are men. To
obtain a team with 20% women how many men should be hired?
Answer Posted / 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
