1,135 people

For every 100 people only 45 people watch more than 10 hours per week. So, the ratio is (45/100), since the company has 2500 we want to know what (x/2500) is. The total ratio becomes (1,135/2,500).

The number is found by dividing 2500 by 100 to receive the common factor of 25. You multiply 45 by 25 to receive your total answer.
