Answer:

The total number of employees the company have is;


92,114

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that an international company has 29,200 employees in one country.

If this represents 31.7% of the company's employees.

let n represent the total number of employees the company have;


31.7\text{\% of n = 29,200}

Solving for n;


\begin{gathered} (31.7)/(100)n=29,200 \\ 0.317n=29,200 \\ n=(29,200)/(0.317) \\ n=92,113.564668 \\ n\approx92,114 \end{gathered}

Therefore, the total number of employees the company have is;


92,114
