The projected number of employed writers and authors in 2016 is 153,000. 12.4% of those will have some college experience but no degree, and 84.1% will have a bachelor’s degree or higher. if this holds true, how many more writers and authors with bachelor’s degree will there be than those with only some college experience and no degree?

109,701 writers

Step-by-step explanation:

The projected number of employed writers and authors in 2016 = 153,000

12.4% of those will have some college experience but no degree.

So the number of writers who have no degree = 12.4% × 153,000

                                                                              = 0.124 × 153,000

                                                                              = 18,972

84.1% will have a bachelor's degree or higher.

The number of the writer who have degree = 84.1% × 153,000

                                                                       = 0.841 × 153,000

                                                                        = 128,673

Now by subtraction, we will find the number of more writers with bachelor's degree than those with only some college experience.

128,673 - 18,972 = 109,701

109,701 writers more with bachelor's degree than those with only some college experience.
