One half of the employees of ICI Co earn salaries above 18000/=annully ,one this of the reaminderr earn salaries between 15000 /= and 18000/=.what part of the staff earns below 15000/=?
this is just like the goldfish problem. What do you think?
Of course, it will help if you fix the missing information...
This problem gives me no sense. There is nothing missing, i have written as, as it is given in manual. So, what will its solution?
Surely you can see that there is something missing where you say
one this of the remainder earn salaries between 15000 and 18000
how much is "one this" ?? Do you not read what you post?
To find the part of the staff that earns below 15000/=, we need to understand the distribution of salaries among the employees based on the information provided.
Let's break down the given information:
1. One half of the employees earn salaries above 18000/= annually.
2. One third of the remaining employees earn salaries between 15000/= and 18000/=.
From point 1, we know that half of the employees earn salaries above 18000/=. This means that the other half of the employees earn salaries below or equal to 18000/=.
Now, from point 2, we know that one third of the remaining employees (the ones who didn't earn salaries above 18000/=) earn salaries between 15000/= and 18000/=.
To calculate the part of the staff that earns below 15000/=, we need to subtract the employees earning between 15000/= and 18000/= from the half of the employees who earn salaries below or equal to 18000/=.
Let's calculate it step by step:
Step 1: Half of the employees earn salaries below or equal to 18000/=.
Step 2: One third of the remaining employees earn salaries between 15000/= and 18000/=.
Step 3: Subtract the employees earning between 15000/= and 18000/= from half of the employees earning below 18000/=.
Mathematically, the equation would be:
Employees earning below 15000/= = (1/2) - (1/3) * (1/2)
Let's compute this:
Step 1: Half of the employees earning below or equal to 18000/=: (1/2) = 0.5
Step 2: One-third of the remaining employees earning between 15000/= and 18000/=: (1/3) * (1/2) = 1/6 = 0.16667
Step 3: Subtract the employees earning between 15000/= and 18000/= from half of the employees earning below 18000/=:
0.5 - 0.16667 = 0.33333
Therefore, approximately one-third (0.33333) of the staff earns below 15000/=.
So, the part of the staff that earns below 15000/= is about one-third.
