Explanation / Answer

1) for metropolitan we have to use unsigned long it. as it will always be positive and can be huge.

2) for a number of days for an employee before resignation or retirement we have to use long it because in case of retirement value can be large which integer will not be able to handle.

3) for the number of months before retirement or resignation integer will be fine. As a year has 12 months and a person works in an organization for max 60 years, the integer can handle this value.

4)for grade we can use char data type as grades are a b c etc.

5) for calculating TDS unsigned int can be double should be used.
