Question

12. In a company, the manager gives a sales target of 16,000 to each of the 10 salesmen working
under him.
ce
a. Four salesmen achieved the target but each one of other six salesmen falls short of the
target by 32000. By how much does the group of 10 salesmen fall short of the total sales
target?
b. If the manager reduces the workforce to eight salesmen, what should be the new sales
target for each salesman to maintain the total sales target?​

Answer 1

Answer:

a.4*16000=64000

16000-32000=-16000

6*-16000=-96000

64000-96000=-32000

16000-32000=-48000

they fall short of 48000

b. 16000*10=160000

160000/8=20000

each man would get a target of 20000 thousand
