You can put this solution on YOUR website! You're standing in a line. If 40% of the people in the line are in front of you, and 58/1/3% of the people are behind you, then how many people are in the queue in total
------------
If you mean 58 1/3%:
====================
the others are 40% + 58 1/3% = 98 1/3%
---> you are 100% - 98 1/3% = 1 2/3% = 5/3%
The others are (300-5)/3%
No integer solution.
