Answer:

2500 workers in total

Step-by-step explanation:

We can do some simple inferring to set up this problem.

First, we know that 95% of the workers are men. That means 5% aren't men. So, 125 = 5% of the workers. We can set up a simple equation:

[tex]0.05x=125[/tex], where [tex]x[/tex] is the total number of workers. Now, just solve for [tex]x[/tex]:

[tex]x=\frac{125}{0.05}[/tex]

[tex]x=2500[/tex]

There are 2500 workers in total.

Hope this helped!
