Solution

Step:Compute the required value.
Total number of chosen employee = $50$
Total number of people employed = $600$
Number of employees who read at least one book each month $= \frac{t o t a l n u m b e r o f c h o o s e n e m p l o y e e}{T o t a l n u m b e r o f p e o p l e e m p l o y e d}$
$= \frac{600}{50} = 12$
Hence,the Number of employees who read at least one book each month $= 12$
