Answer:

11,400.0

Step-by-step explanation:

There needs to be 40 employees per every 3 supervisors, so this means multiplication, or division, but I went with the multiplication route.

285 x 40 = 11,400.

11,400 / 40 = 285.

The reason I multiplied 285 by 40 is because the supervisors was the main piece to the puzzle, and was much easier than if it gave you employees first, and that's when you'd divide by 3.

If there's 285 supervisors, you have the full amount of supervisors, now you need employees, so you are free to multiply by 40, since thats how many supervisors are available every 40 employees. I hope this helps.
