110 Number of women who liked soccer
=
38 x 4 u
= 1.5 u
Number of men who liked soccer
= 4 u - 1.5 u
= 2.5 u
Number of women who disliked soccer
=
110 x 1 u
= 0.1 u
Number of men who disliked soccer
= 1 u - 0.1 u
= 0.9 u
Total number of men
= 2.5 u + 0.9 u
= 3.4 u
Total number of women
= 1.5 u + 0.1 u
= 1.6 u
