A manufacturing company with 450 employees begins a new product line and must increase their number of employees by 18%. How many total employees does the company now have?

Respuesta :

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

                                                       [tex]$=\frac{18}{100}\times 450[/tex]

                                                       = 81

Total employees = Beginning employees + Increased employees

                            = 450 + 81

                            = 531

The total employees the company now have is 531.
