m = count of males
z = count of females (woman) = set to 100 (maybe choosen any number)
x = number of people that have a disease A
p = probability of occurrence of A disease among women
z = count of females (woman) = set to 100 (maybe choosen any number)
x = number of people that have a disease A
p = probability of occurrence of A disease among women
