simple, use ((0.3x22)+X)/(22+X)=0.8 where big X is unknown.

you get X=55, so you hire 55 more people. (0.3 x 22 + 55)/(22+55) = 0.8
tvbaddict says

not total 55 ?
♥PamElanessa♥ says

yah wat, 30% of 22 is 6.6 ppl. you hire 55 more so 61.6 divided by 55+22 is 80%

alisonliew says

70% = 15 ppl.., hence, to makeit to become 20% =15
alisonliew says

80%= ?
alisonliew says
14 years ago
80/20 x 15 = 60
