This is not the place for pasting your homework. Nor has it to do with programming.

It doesn't seem like a programming problem. It's a simple math problem. It can be something like:

C++

double maleLiterateFraction = (60 / 100) * (20 / 100); // 60% * 20%
double femaleLiterateFraction = 0.25 - maleLiterateFraction; // 25% - (male's literate percent)
double femaleLiteratePercent = femaleLiterateFraction * 100; // Convert fraction to percents
