A company employs about 5200 ​full-time employees. About 1000 employees work in one particular factory. What fraction of the​ company's employees work at this​ factory?

1 answer

To calculate the fraction of the company's employees that work at the particular factory, we need to divide the number of employees at the factory by the total number of full-time employees.

Fraction of employees at the factory = Number of employees at the factory / Total number of full-time employees
Fraction of employees at the factory = 1000 / 5200
Fraction of employees at the factory = 1 / 5

Therefore, 1/5 of the company's employees work at the particular factory.
