If 60% employees went to a meeting, which means 40% didn’t go on meeting, of 28 employees were at the meeting, how many total employees are there?

Explanation

Given:

40% of employees didn't go to the meeting, and this equals 28 employees:

40% of x = 28

(40/100)x = 28

0.4x = 28

x = 28 / 0.4

x = 70
