Hello there! Given there are 70 employees after downsizing by 30%, let x equal the number of employees prior to the layoffs:
70 would have to be 70% of x.
To find what 70 is 70% of, we can multiply by 100 because 100 is the base denominator:
70 • 100 = 7,000
Given this equation, we can now divide our result by 70 to get what the amount of employees before the layoffs is:
7,000 divided by 70 gives us 100.
x = 100
Now, we can plug our answer in to see if it makes sense.
Does 70/100 represent 70%?
Yes, it does. 70/100 reduces to 7/10, and by adding 3/10 to our 70%, we get the initial amount of employees.
Your final answer: There were 100 employees prior to the layoffs. If you have any extra questions, let me know and I will gladly assist you.

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The dollar value of the 20% coupon will increase if the discount is from a larger amount. Applying the $25 coupon first reduces the amount that the 20% applies to, so reduces the dollar value of the 20% coupon.
Michelle used the 20% coupon first, so its value was 20%($100) = $20.
Natasha used the $25 coupon first, so the value of the 20% coupon was ...
20%($100 -25) = 20%(%75) = $15.
Michelle paid $20 -15 = $5 less.
