2:3



Number of men in the COLONY = 4/7 (70) = 40
Number of women in the colony = 3/7 (70) = 30
Number of educated women in the colony = 1/5 (30) = 6
Number of uneducated women in the colony = 4/5 (30) = 24
Number of educated PERSONS in the colony = 8/35 (70) = 16
As 6 females are educated, remaining 10 educated persons must be men.
Number of uneducated men in the colony = 40 - 10 = 30
Number of educated men and uneducated men are in the ratio 10:30 => 1:3
