Answer:

total number of workers in the factory is 840.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the number of workers in the factory.

If 35% are women, then the remaining are men, which is 65%.

Thus, number of women is  

100 35x

and number of men is  

100  65x.

According to the question, the number of men exceeds number of women by 252, then

10035x

= 100 65x  +252

100 30x

​=252

Thus,

3x=252×10

x=840.

∴ there are 840 workers in the factory.
