x=7
Answer: 69
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the original employee be x , this means that
116% of x = 80
= 80
116x = 8000
divide through by 116
x = 8000/116
x = 68.96551724
Since we are dealing with employees , therefore x ≈ 69
This means that there were 69 employees originally
Step 1: Convert the denominators to the same number.
1/9 = 2/18
2/3 = 12/18
5/18
Step 2: Add the numerators.
12 + 2 + 5 = 19
Step 3: Convert to mixed number.
19/18 = 1 1/18
