there are 750 male and female participants in a meeting . half the female participants and one - quarterof the male participants are democrats . one - third of all the participants are democrats . how many of the democrats are female ?
"let m be the number of male participants and f be the number of female articipants in the meeting . thetotal number of participants is given as 750 . hence , we have m + f = 750 now , we have that half the female participants and one - quarter of the male participants are democrats . let d equal the number of the democrats . then we have the equation f / 2 + m / 4 = d now , we have that one - third of the total participants are democrats . hence , we have the equation d = 750 / 3 = 250 solving the three equations yields the solution f = 250 , m = 500 , and d = 250 . the number of female democratic participants equals half the female participants equals 250 / 2 = 125 . answer : c"
divide(subtract(multiply(divide(750, const_3), const_4), 750), const_2)
