at a particular graduation party with 300 guests , 70 % of the guests brought gifts , and 40 % of the female guests brought gifts . if 45 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 48 are males , so remaining 90 - 45 = 50 are females . . but 40 % females brought gift , so 60 % did not get it . . so 60 % = 45 , 100 % = 45 * 100 / 60 = 75 . . ans 40 % of 75 = 30 b"
divide(multiply(divide(multiply(subtract(subtract(300, divide(multiply(70, 300), const_100)), 45), const_100), subtract(const_100, 40)), 40), const_100)
