Asports shop has 84 employees. 25% of the employees work part-time. how many part-time employees does the sports shop have?

The sports shop has 21 part-time employees.

Step-by-step explanation:

Solution:

What is 25% of 84?

.Y is 25% of 84

Equation: Y = P% * X

Solving our equation for Y

Y = P% * X

Y = 25% * 84

Converting percent to decimal:

p = 25%/100 = 0.25

Y = 0.25 * 84

Y = 21

Or another quicker way

50% is half of the whole, and 25 is half of 50.

84/2/2

equals 21 too, I don't recommend to use it as row form.
