In a company, 60% of the workers are men If 125 people work for the company who aren't men, how many workers are there in all? Use pencil and paper. Show two different ways that you can solve this problem.

313

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Percentage of workers who are men = 60%

Number of workers who aren't men = 125

Hence, percentage of workers who aren't men = (100% - 60%) = 40%

Thus;

40% of workers = 125

If ;

0.4 = 125

100% of the workers x

0.4 = 125

1 = x

Cross multiply

0.4x = 125

0.4x / 0.4 = 125 / 0.4

x = 312.5

Hence, total number of workers = 313

96 39 cause 135 -96=39 im smart (i used a calculater)

t hope this
