Answer:
219 employees
Step-by-step explanation:
3% of decreasing rate of employees per year is calculated thus:
[tex]3\% \: of \: 810 \: employees[/tex]
[tex] = \frac{3}{100} \times 810[/tex]
[tex] = 24.3 \: employees \: per \: year[/tex]
In 9 years,
[tex] = 24.3 \times 9[/tex]
[tex] = 218.7 = 219 \: employees[/tex]
Therefore, the number of employees for a certain company where decreasing rate of employees is 3% and continued to decrease for 9 years; and 810 employees are currently working is 219 employees. By implication, 810 + 219 = 1029 employees were working in the company 9 years ago.
