    Answer : Option A

    Explanation :

    Number of Managers working in the Company:

    In 1995 = 760.
    In 2000 = (760 + 280 + 179 + 148 + 160 + 193) - (120 + 92 + 88 + 72 + 96)
      = 1252.

    Therefore Percentage increase in the number of Managers

     = [ \(\frac { (1252-760) } { 760}\) x 100] % = 64.74%

    Number of Technicians working in the Company:

     

    In 1995 = 1200.
    In 2000 = (1200 + 272 + 240 + 236 + 256 + 288) -

       (120 + 128 + 96 + 100 + 112)
      = 1936.

    Therefore Percentage increase in the number of Technicians

     = [ \(\frac { (1936 - 1200)} { 12 00}\) x 100 ] = 61.33%

    Number of Operators working in the Company:

    In 1995 = 880.
    In 2000 = (880 + 256 + 240 + 208 + 192 + 248) -

        (104 + 120 + 100 + 112 + 144)
     

    = 1444.

     Therefore Percentage increase in the number of Operators

     =[ \( \frac { (1444 -880)} {880 } \) x 100] %= 64.09%

    Number of Accountants working in the Company:

    In 1995 = 1160.
    In 2000 = (1160 + 200 + 224 + 248 + 272 + 260) -

        (100 + 104 + 96 + 88 + 92)
      = 1884.

    Therefore Percentage increase in the number of Accountants

     = [ \(\frac { (1884-1160) } { 1160 }\) x 100] % =62.41%

    Number of Peons working in the Company:

    In 1995 = 820.
    In 2000 = (820 + 184 + 152 + 196 + 224 + 200) -

        (96 + 88 + 80 + 120 + 104)
      = 1288.

    Therefore Percentage increase in the number of Peons

    = [ \( \frac { (1288-820) } { 820 } \)x 100]%= 57.07%

    Clearly, the percentage increase is maximum in case of Managers
