For an employee training the employee to instructor ratio is 18 to 2. If there are 36 instructors for the training how many employees participated in the training

To find the number of employees, divide the number of instructors by the employee to instructor ratio:

Number of employees = Number of instructors / Employee to instructor ratio
Number of employees = 36 instructors / (18 employees : 2 instructors)
Number of employees = 36 instructors / 9 employees
Number of employees = 4 employees
Therefore, 4 employees participated in the training.
