If 60% of the students at school are girls and the number of boys is 300, how many girls are at the school?
Thoughts? Step-by-step reasoning:

Boys make up 100% - 60% = 40% of the total number of students. The total number of students at the school is 300 / (40 / 100) = 750 students. Since 60% of the students are female, there are (60 / 100) * 750 = 450 female students.
Thus, the answer is 450.
