Question

A small business has 15 full-time employees. How many people does the small business employ if the full-time workers make up 30% of the employees the company has?

Answer 1

50 employees

Explanation:

The total number of employees the business has will have to be made up the full-time employees and part-time employees.

The number of full-time employees = 15

Let the total number of employees = x

`15 = 30 percent of x`

`15 = 30/100 * x\\x=1500/30 = 50`

The company has a total of 50 employees
