An established company started with 147 employees. After 10 years in business, they now have 283 employees. What is the percent increase for the company's number of employees?
So, Increase = New Number - Original Number. Therefore, Increase = 283 - 147 which equals 136. 136 = 283 - 147. Then you want to divide the increase by the original number and multiply the answer by 100. 136/147 = 0.92 0.92 * 100 = 92.
Final Answer: The employee count has increased by 92%. I hope this helps.
