Solve the mathematics word problem below:

A recruiting firm advertised for a job and people from Ward A and Ward B applied. The recruiting firm was tasked to recruit at least 25% of people from Ward A and Ward B. If there are 3600 people from Ward A and 80 people from Ward B, what's the minimum number of people the firm should at least employ?

A. 880
B. 900
C. 920
D. 925
E. None of the Above

Note: Ward A and Ward B are both Wards ie Ward B is equally as important as Ward A even though it consists of a fewer number of people.

Please show your workings.

Ward A = 900
Ward B = 20

Total = 920

Answer by ChatGPT:

To find the minimum number of people the firm should at least employ, we need to calculate 25% of the total number of people from Ward A and Ward B, and then take the larger of the two values to ensure that the firm recruits at least 25% from both wards.

25% of 3600 = (25/100) * 3600 = 900

25% of 80 = (25/100) * 80 = 20

The larger value is 900, so the firm must recruit at least 900 people. Therefore, the correct answer is option B, 900.

Hello this sounds like set. Here's my workings:

25/100 x 3600 = 900

25/100 x 80 = 20

900 + 20 = 920 (C) (answer)

The minimum number of people the firm should employ should be 920.

Even if 200 million people apply from 177,000 wards, there is only one (1) job available.

Or did I read it wrong? 🤔

Option E.

None of the above because there's only one position to be filled by just one person. The answer is:

1 (one).

E because the minimum they can recruit is 20 and maximum is 920

Choi.. Obyno dey pah.

See as word problem don solve election dilemma. Even if you change the and to or, still wahala

To determine the minimum number of people the firm should at least employ, we need to calculate 25% of the total number of people from Ward A and Ward B.

First, we need to find the total number of people who applied:

Total number of applicants = Number of people from Ward A + Number of people from Ward B
Total number of applicants = 3600 + 80
Total number of applicants = 3680

Next, we need to calculate 25% of the total number of applicants:

25% of 3680 = (25/100) x 3680 = 920

Therefore, the recruiting firm should at least employ 920 people to meet the requirement of recruiting at least 25% of people from Ward A and Ward B.

Recruiting firm's minimum employees.

Question:
A recruiting firm advertised for a job and people from Ward A and Ward B applied. The recruiting firm was tasked to recruit at least 25% of people from Ward A and Ward B. If there are 3600 people from Ward A and 80 people from Ward B, what's the minimum number of people the firm should at least employ?

Answer:
To determine the minimum number of people the firm should at least employ, we need to first calculate the number of people that constitute 25% of both Ward A and Ward B:

For Ward A, 25% of 3600 is (25/100) * 3600 = 900
For Ward B, 25% of 80 is (25/100) * 80 = 20
Therefore, the recruiting firm needs to recruit at least 900 people from Ward A and 20 people from Ward B. To determine the total minimum number of people the firm should employ, we simply add these two numbers:

Minimum number of people = 900 + 20 = 920

Therefore, the minimum number of people the firm should at least employ is 920.

A trick question isnt a real problem to be calculated but a kind of riddle..... a trick question is like saying : a plantain farmer plant plantain in a plantain plantation, how many "p" is in that? The answer is zero cos there is no p in "that".....

This question reminds me of the "and FCT" thing in the electoral act which has reignited debates in the aftermath of the elections.

OK I get your point. It's not a riddle, it's just a maths problem. There is nothing ambiguous in the question.

Okay....if u say so....
Since its "a job" that was mentioned in ur question...i thought it was connoting singularity meaning only one job was available

No, the emphasis was the part I bolded: "The recruiting firm was tasked to recruit at least 25% of people from Ward A and Ward B."

When I said a job, I simply meant the job title. For instance, phone operator. Many people can be employed at the same time as phone operator. Perhaps I didn't coin my words well.
