Answer:

5,400 total workers

Explanation:

70% of workers are men, this means that 30% of workers aren't men

This means that 1,620 is 30% of the total workers

To figure out the total workers you do:

30 (percentage that represents the value)/100 = 1,620 (value) / x (total workers)

You then cross-multiply the equation by multiple the numbers diagonal each other:

30/100

=1,620/x

So, 30x = 162,000

You then isolate the variable

30x/30 = 162,000/30

x = 5,400
