Question

Cole is studying employment trends.

He found that 20% of the social workers he surveyed, or 45 social workers,
work part time. How many social workers did Cole survey altogether?​

Answer 1

225

Explanation:

So we know that 20% of the social workers he surveyed was 45 people. The easiest way to find all 100% of the social workers is to do 45 x 5 because 20% x 5 = 100%. So 45 x 5 = 225.

Hope this helped! :)
