You can put this solution on YOUR website!
you want to hire 30 people in 10 days.
\n" ); document.write( "your passing rate per day is 30%.
\n" ); document.write( "you want to know how many people you have to interview per day to get your 30 people in 10 days.
\n" ); document.write( "let x = number of people you interview per day.
\n" ); document.write( "your formula would be:
\n" ); document.write( ".3*x*10 = 30
\n" ); document.write( "solve for x to get:
\n" ); document.write( "x = 30/(.3*10) which results in:
\n" ); document.write( "x = 10 per day.
\n" ); document.write( "let's see if that works.
\n" ); document.write( "you interview 10 people per day.
\n" ); document.write( "you hire 3 of them each day.
\n" ); document.write( "in 10 days you have hired 30 people.
\n" ); document.write( "it works.
\n" ); document.write( "you need to interview 10 people per day.
\n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "
