God, this seems so blimming simply but i think i have done it wrong.
If I had event A happening 100 times and event B happening 100 times.
And the percentage of A was 55% and the percentage of B was 45%. (of another variable)
If I wanted to change the results of how much event a was happing from 55% to 50% and event B to 50%.
Would this be right
event A happening = (100 / 55) *50
event B happening = (100 / 45) *45
.....this sounds really confusing i know....
Can anyone understand?
EDIT:
Ok erm, for instance:
If there the word "man" and the word "woman" was mentioned 100 times each in a book.
And the percentage of males was 55% and the percentage of females was 45%.
Assuming there is a link between two things (eg males linked to the word man..etc..).
If I was actually 50:50 males to females, how would the number of times the word "man" and "woman" be affected.
