Final answer:

To calculate the total number of employees in the international company, divide 25,200 by 0.323, with the result representing the company's entire workforce, and we get the total number of employees 78018

Step-by-step explanation:

The question asks to find the total number of employees in an international company given that 25,200 employees represent 32.3% of the total.

To find the total number of employees, we can set up the equation 32.3% (or 0.323 in decimal form) times the total number of employees (T) equals 25,200.

Therefore, the equation becomes 0.323T = 25,200.

To solve for T, we divide both sides of the equation by 0.323, which gives us T = 25,200 / 0.323.

= 78018 approx

the total number of employees, which is then rounded to the nearest whole number.
