Answer:

490 female students

Explanation:

If 70% of students are female, 30% are male.

If 30% of students = 210 students, we can divide both sides of the equation by 3.

30/3 = 10

210/3 = 70

10% of students = 70 students

To get 70% of students, multiply both sides by 7.

10*7 = 70

70 * 7 = 490

70% of students = 490 students

Hope this helps!
