Answer:

209 employees

Explanation:

Ratio men : women = 4 : 7

There are 76 men working for the company. We will do this.

number of men working/ratio of men

76/4 = 19

(number of men working/ratio of men) ratio of women = number of women working for the company.

(76/4) x 7 = 19 x 7 = 133

76 + 133 = 209

There are 209 employees.
