at a particular graduation party with 300 guests , 70 % of the guests brought gifts , and 40 % of the female guests brought gifts . if 30 males did not bring gifts to the party , how many females did bring gifts ?
"the correct method total = 300 . . 70 % of 300 = 210 got gifts . . 90 did not get gift , out of which 30 are males , so remaining 90 - 30 = 60 are females . . but 40 % females brought gift , so 60 % did not get it . . so 60 % = 60 , 100 % = 60 * 100 / 60 = 100 . ans 40 % of 100 = 40 c"
divide(multiply(divide(multiply(subtract(subtract(300, divide(multiply(70, 300), const_100)), 30), const_100), subtract(const_100, 40)), 40), const_100)
