Answer:

122785 employees.

Explanation:

Let the total number of employees be X

Given the following data;

Number of employees = 29100

Percentage = 23.7%

To find the total number of employees;

23.7/100 * X = 29100

Cross-multiplying, we have;

23.7X = 29100 * 100

23.7X = 2910000

X = 2910000/23.7

X = 122784.81 ≈ 122785 employees
