    Answer: the number of presents that she has left to purchase is 6

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Let x represent the total number of presents that she has to purchase.

    She bought three presents and says that she has 30% of her shopping finished. This means that she has finished (1/3 * x) = x/3 shopping. This is equivalent to 3 presents. Therefore,

    x/3 = 3

    x = 3*3 = 9

    She had 9 shopping to do

    The number of shopping left will be total shopping that she has to do minus the shopping that she has done. It becomes

    9 - 3 = 6
