The total employees the company now have is 531.
Solution:
Beginning employees in a company = 450
Percentage of employees increased = 18%
Number of increased employees = 18% of 450
= 81
Total employees = Beginning employees + Increased employees
= 450 + 81
= 531
The total employees the company now have is 531.
