\n" ); document.write( "
Fraction that voted in favor: \"matrix%281%2C3%2C+3%2F4%2C+or%2C+.75%29\"
\n" );
document.write( "Fraction that voted \"not in favor\": \"matrix%281%2C3%2C+1%2F4%2C+or%2C+.25%29\"
\n" );
document.write( "With P being the number that voted in favor, we get the following PROPORTION: \"matrix%281%2C3%2C+.25%2F.75%2C+%22=%22%2C+%222%2C250%22%2FP%29\"
