WANR - 22%
WCLM - 24%
WWCN - 41%
WKOD - 13%

The ratio of WANR to WCLM is 22:24 OR 11:12
Ratio of WANR to the whole is 22:100 OR 11:50
Ratio of WCLM to the whole is 24:100 OR 12:50

Answer: 11/12 is the ratio to express the number of people who preferred WANR to those who preferred WCLM.

Explanation:

Let the total number of people= x

So, According to the given diagram,

The number of people who preferred WANR = 22% of x

While, The number of people who preferred WCLM = 24% of x

Therefore, The number of people who preferred WANR/The number of people who preferred WCLM = 22% of x / 24% of x

=
(22/100* x)/(24/100* x) =
(22)/(24) =(11)/(12)

Which is the required answer.
