Answer:

The correct answer is option A) 29 : 49

With the help of the given information, we can draw the following table.

Organisation 

Male

Female

HR

108

272

Marketing

315

160

Finance

270

144

Administration

90

224

Manufacturing

117

0

Total

900

800

Hence, we can say the total number of male employees in the Administration department after the transfer from the HR department = 90 +26 = 116

And, the number of female employees in the HR department = 278 + 28 = 300

The number of female employees left in the Administration department = 224 – 28 = 196

Hence, the required ratio = 116 : 196 = 29 : 49

Summary:

If 26 Male Employees from the HR Department are Transferred to the Administration Department and 28 Female Employees from the Administration Department are transferred to the HR Department, What is the Ratio of the Number of Male Employees to the Number of Female Employees in the Administration Department After the Transfer of Employees?

The answer to this mathematical problem is option A) 29 : 49 and you can go through the above article to understand the steps to derive this result.
