It's been a while since I had to do any kind of math, and for some reason I can't even figure out how they got to this answer.
"A team of clothing workers had an output of 1,000 uniforms per week. This
output was increased by 20%, which demanded an increase of 50 uniforms
per worker. How many workers are there on the team?"
The answer is 4, but what's the "formula" to come to that conclusion?
(1000 x 0.20)/50 = 4
Is that the proper method?
