12 percent of 250 is 30, so subtracting that from the original 250 leaves you with 220 employees.

Answer: There are 220 employees working there.

Explanation:

Since we have given that

Total number of employees last year at this time = 250

Percentage of employees lost due to attrition = 12%

Remaining percentage of employees 100% - 12% = 88%

So, we need to find the number of employees working here now.

Number of employees are given by


(88)/(100)* 250\\\\=0.88* 250\\\\=220

Hence, there are 220 employees working there.
