Question : 2 of 40

Marks: +1, -0

31% of employees pay tax in the year 2008. Non-tax paying employees are 20,700. The total number of employees is:

31, 160
64, 750
30, 000
66, 775

Solution:

Let the total number of employees = x
Number of employees who paid tax = 31%
Number of employees who did not pay the tax = 100 - 31 = 69%
According to the statement,
69% of x = 20,700

69/100×x=20700

x = 30,000
