Correct Answer: Department 5
Solution : Variation in strength of employees in 2021 in comparison to that in 2020: The number of employees in department 1 in the year 2020 = $\frac{24}{100}\times 1200 = 288 $ The number of employees in department 2 in the year 2020 = $\frac{21}{100}\times 1200 = 252$ The number of employees in department 3 in the year 2020 = $\frac{20}{100}\times 1200 = 240$ The number of employees in department 4 in the year 2020 = $\frac{19}{100}\times 1200 = 228$ The number of employees in department 5 in the year 2020 = $\frac{16}{100}\times 1200 = 192$ The number of employees in department 1 in the year 2022 = $\frac{21}{100}\times 1600 =336$ The number of employees in department 2 in the year 2022 = $\frac{22}{100}\times 1600 =352$ The number of employees in department 3 in the year 2022 = $\frac{18}{100}\times 1600 =288$ The number of employees in department 4 in the year 2022 = $\frac{19}{100}\times 1600 =304$ The number of employees in department 5 in the year 2022 = $\frac{20}{100}\times 1600 =320$ The variation in the strength of employees in 2021 in comparison to that in 2020. In department 1 = 336 – 288 = 48 In department 2 = 352 – 252 = 100 In department 3 = 288 – 240 = 28 In department 4 = 304 – 228 = 76 In department 5 = 320 – 192 = 128 Hence, the correct answer is Department 5.
