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?



Answer :

You just multiply 450 by .18 and it'll give you the 18% you have to add to 450.
So the equation would look like:

450(.18)=81

Which you then add:

450+81= 531

So 531 is your total!

Answer:

The total number of employees company have now are 531 .

Step-by-step explanation:

As given

A manufacturing company with 450 employees begins a new product line and must increase their number of employees by 18%.

18% is written in the decimal form .

[tex]= \frac{18}{100}[/tex]

= 0.18

Increase in number of employees = 0.18 × Number of employees in company .

                                      = 0.18 × 450

                                      = 81

Total number of employees company have now = Number of employees + Increase in number of employees

                                                                                 = 450 + 81

                                                                                 = 531

Therefore the total number of employees company have now are 531 .
