Formula Used:

Percentage = \(\frac{company \space B \space employee\space in\space 2019}{company \space C \space employee\space in\space 2021}\times100\)

Calculations:

⇒ The employee in company B in 2019 = 18

⇒ The employee in Company C in 2021 = 17

So, 

⇒ Percentage = \(\frac{company \space B \space employee\space in\space 2019}{company \space C \space employee\space in\space 2021}\times100=\frac{18}{17}\times100 = 105.88\%\)

⇒ Hence, The number of employees recruited in Company C  to the percentage of the number of employees recruited in Company C in the year 2021 is 105.88%
