Given:

The number of employees working in the office = 18

The total employees = 48


\begin{gathered} a+b=48 \\ \text{Here a = 18} \\ 18+b=48 \\ b=30 \end{gathered}

the number of employees who work in the warehouse = 30

The ratio of the employees to work in the office to the employees who work in the warehouse is,


a\colon b=18\colon30=(18)/(30)=(3)/(5)=3\colon5

Answer: option A) 3:5
