His problem can be solved using the principle of proportionality or rule three.
We can take advantage of the proportion between respondents who tell us the number of respondents and how many expect to go on vacation and the total number of workers, therefore:
Respondents /// Whole company
Vacations 21 x
Total 45 516
then x equals:
x = (516 * 21) / (45)
x = 240.8
x = 241 clients
This means that approximately 241 clients expect to go on vacation throughout the company.
