Answer:

5 males : 4 females

40 males : X females

5/40 =4/X

(cross multiplication)

5x = 4*40

5x = 160

(divide both sides by 5)

X = 32

therefore, there are 32 females at the camp

Butoxors [25]
Multiplying 0.7 by the original price will work...

If you divide the cost by 100, subtract 30 from 100, you will be left with 70% times the 1/100
70% is also expressed as 0.7, since 7/10=70/100

Hope this helps!
