110 Number of women who liked rugby
=
38 x 6 u
= 2.25 u
Number of men who liked rugby
= 6 u - 2.25 u
= 3.75 u
Number of women who disliked rugby
=
110 x 1 u
= 0.1 u
Number of men who disliked rugby
= 1 u - 0.1 u
= 0.9 u
Total number of men
= 3.75 u + 0.9 u
= 4.65 u
Total number of women
= 2.25 u + 0.1 u
= 2.35 u
Men : Women
4.65 : 2.35
