Problem Solving (PS) | Re: At a public housing conference 15 percent of the attendees are male.

Let the number of people at this conference be 100.
-15 are male which implies 85 are female.
-Only women leave and we're left with 60 people, this implies 40 women left the conference.
-[85-40][/85] this simplifies to [8][/17]
-C is my answer.
