Question

The number of employees at a plant continually fluctuates. one month started at 568. then 102 employees were hired, and the next 57 employees were displaced. if the plant then plans to add 10% more employees, how many will it have?how many employees will the plant have?

Answer 1

Beginning total = 568
Hired = 102
new total = 670

Fired = 670 - 57 = 613 employees

10/ 100 × 613 = 61.3 ( round off to 61 because you cant have .3 of a person)

Total Employees at = 613 + 61 = 674 employees
