A group of boy scouts and girls scouts is going on a rafting trip. 60% of the scouts arrived with signed permission slips. If 45% of the scouts were boy scouts and 50% of the boy scouts arrived with signed permission slips, then what percentage of the girl scouts arrived with signed permission slips? Round to the nearest percent.	Select
A) 64 B) 68 C) 72 D) 76 E) 80

Rationale: "45 % were boy scouts so 55 % ( 100 - 45 = 55 ) were girl scouts . # of boy scouts with permission slips signed + # of girl scouts with permission slips signed = total # with permission slip signed ( 50 % of 45 % of the total going ) + ( ? % of 55 % of the total going ) = 60 % of the total going we can let the ` ` total going ' ' = 1,000 arbitrarily since we only care about the percent ( of girl scouts w / permission signed ) . 50 * . 45 * 1,000 + x * . 55 * 1,000 = . 60 * 1,000 225 + x * 550 = 600 550 x = 375 x = 375 / 550 x = . 6818181818 which converts to a percent of 68.18181818 % which rounds to 68 % b"
