Assume a + b + c + d = 100%.
We have a + c = 50%, a + b = 60% and a = 30%.
Substituting a = 30% into the other 2 equations gives us, a + c = 50%, 30% + c = 50%, c = 20% and a + b = 60%, 30% + b = 60%, b = 30%.
We have d = 20% since a + b + c + d = 100% and a + b + c = 80%.
Since 6 employees make up 20% of the total employees we have 6e = 20100. Cross multiplying gives us 20e = 600, and the total number of employees = 30.

Therefore, D is the correct answer.
Answer: D
