20100 =
15 Number of women who liked golf
=
18 x 4 u
= 0.5 u
Number of men who liked golf
= 4 u - 0.5 u
= 3.5 u
Number of women who disliked golf
=
15 x 1 u
= 0.2 u
Number of men who disliked golf
= 1 u - 0.2 u
= 0.8 u
Total number of men
= 3.5 u + 0.8 u
= 4.3 u
Total number of women
= 0.5 u + 0.2 u
= 0.7 u
Men : Women
4.3 : 0.7
