8600/(100*5) = ?

Answer 2

Dear PsyDAG,

Thanks for your help, I suppose the answer to be 17.2 FETs?

Answer 3

You might want to round it to the nearest person. It rounds to 17, but if you want all the records to be covered, you might round it up to 18. This would give the FTEs a little slack.

Answer 4

that rounding wasn't correct.
