Question 19
An international company has
23,900
employees in one country. If this represents
19.6%
of the company's employees, how many employees does it have in total?

Respuesta :

So 23.900 is 19.6% of the country.

19.6% is another way of writing 19.6 out of 100... do you see where im going with this?

so say 100% is x

and 23,900 is 19.6% of x

so just find out what times 19.6 is 100 and how do you do that? (division)

do 100/19.6 and you get 5.10204081633 a pretty ugly # but its ok.

so since you multiply 
5.10204081633 by 19.6 to get 100.... and 23,900 is 19.6, you multiply 23,900 by 5.10204081633 to get the total employee's

here i'll do it for you :)

23,900 x 
5.10204081633 = 121938.77551

now you have have 7/10 of a human so you would always round down with this and you would get

121938 total employee's good luck with others!
