Solution(By Examveda Team)

(Number of females in HR and Accounts) : (Number of males in HR and Accounts)
= $$ \left\{\left(\frac{65}{100}\times360\right)+\left(\frac{35}{100}\times220\right)\right\}$$       $$: \left\{\left(\frac{35}{100}\times360\right)+\left(\frac{65}{100}\times220\right)\right\}$$
= (234 + 77) : (126 + 143)
= 311 : 269
