Answer:

720 employees

Explanation:

Number of responded employees = 90% of 2000 employees = 1800 employees

Out of 1800 employees, if 60% answer yes, then the remaining 40% will answer "no". 72 employees did not respond to the survey.

Number of "no" answered employees = 40% of 1,800 employees = 720 employees( Answer)
