问题 A manufacturing company has plants in three locations: Indonesia, Mexico, and Pakistan. The company has 6,000 employees, and each of the employees works at only one of the plants. If 3/8 of the employees work at the plant in Indonesia and if twice as many employees work at the plant in Mexico as work at the plant in Pakistan, how many employees work at the plant in Mexico?
______employees

选项

答案 2,500

解析 Three-eighths of the company’s 6,000 employees work in Indonesia, so the number of employees that do not work in Indonesia is(6,000), or 3,750. Of those employees, twice as many work in Mexico as work in Pakistan, so the number working in Mexico is(3,750), or 2,500. Thus the correct answer is 2,500 employees.
