Solution

Let number of people lived in city A is 100a.

Number of people not attending seminar from A is 100a × 60 /100 = 60a

Number of people attending seminar from A is 100a – 60a = 40a

Number of male attending seminar from A is 40a × 25 /100 =10a

Number of females attending seminar from A is 40a – 10a = 30a

Number of male who not attending seminar from A is 60a × 3 / 5 =36a

Number of females who not attending seminar from A is 60a – 36a = 24a

So, 30a = 600, a = 20.

Let number of people lived in city B is 100b.

Number of people not attending seminar from B is 100b × 40 /100 = 40b

Number of people attending seminar from B is 100b – 40b = 60b

Number of male attending seminar from B is 60b × 40/100 =24b

Number of females attending seminar from B is 60b – 24b = 36b

Number of male who not attending seminar from B is 40b × 5 / 8 =25b

Number of females who not attending seminar from B is 40b – 25b = 15b

So, 36b = 1440,

b = 1440 / 36 = 40

25b – 15b = 10b = 10 × 40 = 400 

Also,

k + 120 = 400

k = 400 – 120 = 280

Now,

36a - 24a = 12a = 12 × 20 = 240

Difference between male and female who did not attend seminar from A

k - 40
