Answer 1

Explanation:

23,500 employees.....this represents 29.3% of the total employees

so 29.3% of the total employees is 23,500

let x represent the total employees...and turn ur percent to a decimal..." of " means multiply and " is " means equals

0.293x = 23,500

x = 23,500 / 0.293

x = 80204.77.......so the total employees is 80,205 <==

Answer 2

Explanation:

Let x be the total number of employees

29.3% of x = 23500

29.3 * x /100 = 23500

x = 23500 * 100 /29.3

x = 80205
