Answer:
52.
Explanation:
So 143 members represent 100% of the population of the problem. A ratio of 4:7 similarly represent 100%. First, you need to get the value of 4:7 in a representation of 100%. You can do that by adding the two (4+7=11) and then dividing it by each value of it. So 7 divided by 11 is .6363, or 63.63% of the whole. Then 4 divided by 11 is .3636, or 36.36% of the whole. After getting this, seeing that the ratio for union members to non union members is 4 union members to 7 nonunion members, and there are 143 employees in total, just get the value of 36.36% of 143; in this case, it's 51.99 - rounded off to 52 employees.
