Question 1105706: In addition to an employee's salary, a company typically spends an additional 33% of the salary on employee benefits. A company is looking to hire three new employees and estimates $52,000 for each annual salary. Please estimate how much the company will spend on these three new employees for the first year

You can put this solution on YOUR website!
For each employee, it is $52,000+(0.33 * 52,000)=$69,333.33
For three of them, it is 3 times that and rounds up to $208,000.
One can triple the salary (156,000) and multiply it by 4/3 as well.
