Given in the question:
a.) Yahoo in Sunnyside currently has a staff of 6200 employees.
b.) Next month Yahoo will decrease its staff by 8%.
To be able to get how many people will be employed by Yahoo next month, we will be using this formula:
[tex]\text{Employed Next Month = (Current No. of Staff) x (Remaining Percentage of Employed)}[/tex]We get,
[tex]\text{Employed Next Month = (6,200) x (}\frac{\text{100\% - 8\%}}{100\text{\%}}\text{)}[/tex][tex]\text{Employed Next Month = (6,200) x (}\frac{92\text{\%}}{100\text{\%}}\text{)}[/tex][tex]\text{Employed Next Month = (6,200) x (}0.92\text{)}[/tex][tex]\text{Employed Next Month = }5,704[/tex]Therefore, there will be 5,704 people employed by Yahoo next month.
