Carl has just started his new job as a human resource management assistant for JK Manufacturing. His first project is to gather demographic information on the personnel at their three locations in El Paso, San Diego, and Chicago. Carl studied some of the demographics collected by the Bureau of Labor Statistics (www.stats.bls.gov) in one of his human resource classes and decided to collect similar data. Primarily, he wants to know the gender, level of education, and ethnic/racial backgrounds of JK Manufacturing’s workforce. He designs a survey using categories he found at the Bureau of Labor Statistics web site. Employees at each of the locations completed Carl’s survey, and reported the following information: El Paso: 140 women, 310 men; 95 had a bachelor’s degree or higher, 124 had some college or an associate’s degree, 200 were high school graduates, and the rest had less than a high school diploma; 200 employees were white non-Hispanic, 200 were Hispanic or Latino, 20 were black or African American, 15 were Asian, and the rest were “other.” San Diego: 525 women, 375 men; 150 had a bachelor’s degree or higher, 95 had some college or an associate’s degree, 500 were high school graduates, and the rest had less than a high school diploma; 600 employees were Hispanic or Latino, 200 were black or African American, 50 were white non-Hispanic, 25 were Asian, and the rest were “other.” Chicago: 75 women, 100 men; 20 had a bachelor’s degree or higher, 75 had some college or an associate’s degree, 75 were high school graduates, and the rest had less than a high school diploma; 100 employees were white non-Hispanic, 50 were black or African American, 25 were Hispanic or Latino, there were no Asians or “other” at the facility. 1. Carl’s supervisor asked him to summarize the information and convert the raw data to a decimal part of the total for each location. Carl designed the following chart to organize the data. To complete the chart, write a fraction with the number of employees in each category as the numerator and the total number of employees in each city as the denominator. Then convert the fraction to a decimal rounded to the nearest hundredth. Enter the decimal in the chart. To check your calculations, the total of the decimal equivalents for each city should equal 1 or close to 1 because of rounding discrepancies.
