C:2650
total emp- 20
10 belong to recui. dev.
15 to technical div.
then 5 to both.
then
5*5*10=1250
10*10*10=1000
5*15*10=750
total=2650

let no of employees that are in both the division be x
so no of employees only in technical division will be 15-x
and that in recruitment division will be 10-x
so,Total cost = (15-x)150 +(10-x)100 + 250x = 3250

total employee=20
no. of emp in tech. div=15
no. of emp. in rec. div=10
but toal no of emp=20
so 5 are in both div
so, only tech div emp=15-5=10
only rec div=10-5=5
so total cost=(5*25+15*10+5*10)*10=(125+150+50)*10=3250
answer is option (b)

Let no. of employees in technical division, recruitment division and both be a,c,b respectively.
Then the three equations are:
a+b=15
b+c=10
a+b+c=20

a=10,b=c=5

Total cost of shares =325*10=3250 (b)
