This year, Dalton's Solar Systems, a growing solar panel manufacturer, hired 108 new employees. That is 8% more than were hired last year. How many new employees were hired last year?

100 employees

Explanation:

Based on the information given in the question, let the number of new employees hired last year be represented by x.

Therefore,

(100% + 8%) × x = 108

108% × x = 108

108/100 × x = 108

1.08 × x = 108

1.08x = 108

x = 108/1.08

x = 100

The number of new employees hired last year is 100
