Let X be the total number of employees in the company.

We know that 12,900 employees represent 19.3% of the total number of employees. We can express this as an equation:

12,900 = 0.193X

To find X, we can solve for it by dividing both sides of the equation by 0.193:

X = 12,900 ÷ 0.193

X ≈ 66,872.85

Therefore, the company has approximately 66,872.85 employees in total. Since we can't have a fraction of an employee, we can round this up or down to the nearest whole number. Depending on the context and level of precision needed, we might report the total number of employees as either 66,873 or 66,872.
