In terms of percentage,
\n" ); document.write( "\"M%2BF=100\"
\n" ); document.write( "But you know that,
\n" ); document.write( "\"F=2M\"
\n" ); document.write( "Substituting,
\n" ); document.write( "\"M%2B2M=100\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"3M=100\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"M=100%2F3=33.3\"
\n" ); document.write( "Then
\n" ); document.write( "\"F=2%2833.3%29=66.7\"
\n" ); document.write( "The percentage of males attending the meeting was 33%.\r
