Answer:
36.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the total number of employees be a^2.
Here,
Employees on the trip : twice the square root of total employees = 2√( a^2 ) = 2a
Half of total number of employees are in office : 1 / 2 of a^2 = a^2 / 2
Remaining employees : 6
Total number of employees = a^2
= > employees on trip + employees in office + remaining employees = a^2
= > 2a + ( a^2 / 2 ) + 6 = a^2
= > 2a + 6 = a^2 - a^2 / 2
= > 2a + 6 = a^2 / 2
= > 4a + 12 = a^2
= > a^2 - 4a - 12 = 0
= > a^2 - 6a + 2a - 12 = 0
= > a( a - 6 ) + 2( a - 6 ) = 0
= > ( a - 6 )( a + 2 ) = 0
= > a = 6 or - 2
= > a^2 = 36 or 4
= > a^2 = 36 { a ≠ 4, a > 6 in all cases }.
