For Type-A accounts: 1000 accounts * 28 calls = 28,000 callsFor Type-B accounts: 2200 accounts * 15 calls = 33,000 callsTotal calls needed = 28,000 + 33,000 = 61,000 callsSalespeople needed = 61,000 calls / 1500 calls per salesperson = 40.67Rounding up, since you can't have a fraction of a salesperson, you need 41 salespeople.
