Amanufacturing company hired 30 new employees. this hiring increased the company’s total workforce by 5%. how many employees now work at this company?

We can solve this problem by using the formula:

1 + fractional increase = (original employees + new employees) / original employees

Lets say,

x = original employees

Therefore substituting the known values:

1 + 0.05 = (x + 30) / x

1.05 x = x + 30

0.05 x = 30

x = 600

Therefore the number of employees working now is:

x +  30

= 630 employees

call the larger triangle abc

then the smaller triangle cde is similar to abc (all angles are equal, aaa).  

ab is the side that is 36, and we wish to find de, the side corresponding to ab

area_cde = area_abc - area_cde --> area_abc / area_cde = 2

let x=length of de

ratio of areas = (ratio of sides)^2
