Let's named variables, new workers as x and experienced workers sa y.
We get two equations
x+y =68 ∧ 9.50x+14y=835
From the first equation we have x=68-y, then replace in the second and get
9.5 (68-y) + 14y = 835 => 646 - 9.5y+14y=835
4.5y= 835-646 => 4.5y=189 => y= 189/4.5 = 42
when we replace y=42 in the x=68-42 =26 we get x=26
The correct answer is
The number of new workers is 26 !
Good luck!!!!
