    Answer:

    • 575

    Step-by-step explanation:

    • 10000 ⇒ 23
    • 250000 ⇒ x

    Cross-multiply and solve for x:

    • x = 250000*23/10000
    • x = 575

    GIVEN:

    23 health-care workers for every 10,000 people.

    ANSWER:

    Let the health care workers be x.

    By inverse proportionality,

    10000/23 = 250000/x

    1/23 = 25/x

    x = 25 × 23

    x = 575.

    Hence, 575 health-care workers are needed to meet the suggestion of 250,000 people.
