In a school, 40% of the students are male and all the students like either math or English. If 60% of the students like math and 30% of the students are male who like English, what percentage students of the class are female students who like English?

Let's denote the total number of students as 100 for ease of calculation. - 40% are male, so there are 40 male students. - 60% like math, so 60 students like math. Out of the 40 male students, 30% like English, which is 12 male students (30% of 40). This means the total number of students who like English is the remaining students after accounting for those who like math, which is: Total who like English = Total students - Total who like math = 100 - 60 = 40 students. Since 12 of the students who like English are male, the number of female students who like English is: Total who like English - Male students who like English = 40 - 12 = 28 female students. To find the percentage of female students who like English: Female students who like English = 28 Total students = 100 Percentage of female students who like English = (28 / 100) * 100 = 28%. So, 28% of the students are female students who like English.
