Answer:
8 floors
Step-by-step explanation:
The number of employees is directly proportional to the number of floors that each building has.
The first building has 32 floors and it occupies 189 employees. Therefore:
189 α 32
=> 189 = k * 32 = 32k
where k = constant of proportionality
=> k = 189/32
The new building has 50 employees, therefore:
50 = kN
where N = number of floors
=> 50 = 189/32 * N
N = (50 * 32) / 189 ≅ 8 floors
The new building should have 8 floors
