At Veridux Corporation, there are 215 employees. Of these, 90 are female, and the rest are males. There are a total of 40 managers, and the rest of the employees are associates. If there are a total of 135 male associates, how many female managers are there? Choose the correct choice from the following options
A) 50
B) 20
C) 25
D) 30
E) 35
Well, first letâ€™s take care of the â€œtotalsâ€. The numbers in the â€œtotalsâ€ row must add up. If 90 are females, the other 215 â€“ 90 = 125 must be males. Similarly, the numbers in the â€œtotalsâ€ column must add up. If 40 are managers, then the other 215 â€“ 40 = 175 must be associates.   Now, in the â€œassociateâ€ row, 135 + E = 175, which means E = 40â€” the other 40 associates must be female.   Now, to find B, which is what the question is asking, we need only look at the sum in the â€œfemaleâ€ column: B + 40 = 90, which means B = 50. There are fifteen female managers in this company. Thus, the answer = 50(50).
