25%
im not usually good at math but I looked at it like this:
If you had 60 questions on a test and you got 45 right, what did you get on the test? you would divide 45 into 60 and get 75%. so that out of 100. then ask whats the rest of the percent you need to get to 100? Well 75 +25 is 100 or you could do 60-45=15 then do 15 divided by 60 and get 25% but the answer is 25% of the class is male.
In a class of 60 students,45 students are female. What percentage (%) of the students are male.

you are correct, but it seems a bit convoluted.
Still, if it helps you sort out the quantities, good job.
