Question

A company has 12 000 employees. During the financial crisis in 2008, 2.5 % of them were retrenched

50.75 % of them had a pay cut and the rest were unaffected. Find the number of employees who
were unaffected by the financial crisis.

Answer 1

5610

Explanation:

unaffected people will be (100%-2.5\%-50.75%)=46.75% of 12000:

`12000\cdot 46.75\%=12000\cdot (46.75)/(100) =120\cdot 46.75=5610`
