    Explanation:

    - First, calculate the number of females in each company:

    - Company A: 30% of 1200 = 360 females

    - Company B: 35% of 1600 = 560 females

    - Company C: 60% of 1800 = 1080 females

    - Company D: 40% of 2200 = 880 females

    - Calculate the average number of females across companies A, B, C, and D:

    - Average = (360 + 560 + 1080 + 880) / 4 = 720

    - The number of females in company E is 80 more than this average:

    - Females in E = 720 + 80 = 800

    - With a male to female ratio of 17:16 in company E:

    - Let females be 16x: 16x = 800, so x = 50

    - Therefore, males = 17x = 850

    - Total employees in company E = males + females = 850 + 800 = 1650

    - Option 3, 1650, is correct.
