in the graduating class of a certain college, 48 percent of the students are male and 52 percent are female. in this class 40 percent of the male and 20 percent of the female students are 25 years old or older. if one student in the class is randomly selected, approximately what is the probability that he or she will be less than 25 years old?  Choose the most appropriate option:  A) 0.9  B) 0.7  C) 0.45  D) 0.3  E) 0.25

subtract(const_1, multiply(divide(40, const_100), divide(subtract(const_100, 20), const_100)))
"percent of students who are 25 years old or older is 0.4 * 48 + 0.2 * 52 = ~ 30 , so percent of people who are less than 25 years old is 100 - 30 = 70 . answer : b ."
