Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: C
First, find the total number of employees present in offices C and D on Tuesday. From the table, Office C had 164 employees and Office D had 189 employees. Sum = 164 + 189 = 353. Next, find the total number of employees present in offices A and E on Thursday. From the table, Office A had 89 employees and Office E had 113 employees. Sum = 89 + 113 = 202. Finally, calculate the difference between these two totals: 353 - 202 = 151.
