    Solution

    ATQ,

    Let the number of employees be 8n. Number of males = (5/8) × 8n = 5n Number of females = 8n - 5n = 3n Number of employees in next year = (29/21) × 8n = 11n Number of males in next year = (13/10) × 5n = 6.5n Number of females in next year = 11n - 6.5n = 4.5n Required ratio = 6.5n : (4.5n - 3n) = 6.5n : 1.5n = 13 : 3
