Answer:
82991 employees
Step-by-step explanation:
One way to solve this would be to solve for 1% of the company's employees and use that value to solve for 100% (100%=the whole part, or the total). We know that
28300 = 34.1%
If we divide a number by itself, it turns into 1. Dividing both sides by 34.1, we get
829.912 = 1%
Then, we know that anything multiplied by 1 is equal to itself. We want to figure out 100%, or the whole part, so we can multiply both sides by 100 to get
100% = 82991
Divide both sides by 1.5
1.5x = 3
x = 2
Check the equation by plugging in the 2.
1.5(2) = 3
3 = 3
