Answer: There are 220 employees working now.

Explanation:

Hi, to answer this question, first, we have to multiply the number of employees by the percentage in decimal form.

  • 12% = 12/100= 0.12 (decimal form)

So, mathematically speaking:

  • 250 x 0.12 = 30 employees less

Finally, we subtract the number obtained to the initial number of employees.

  • 250 -30 = 220 employees.

There are 220 employees working now.

Feel free to ask for more if needed or if you did not understand something.
