Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The total number of workers is our unknown. If 40% of this unknown number are women and the number of women is 1380, then the equation looks like this:
(remember that the word "of" generally means to multiply)
(also remember that we have to use the decimal form of a percent in an equation)
.40(x) = 1380 then divide to get the number of total workers:
x = 3450
