Let say a chance of belly dancer being employed is 0.6 or 60% and older administrator 0.2 or 20%. Or out of 100 belly dancers applying for job 60 will be accepted while out of 100 older administrators 20 will be accepted. Therefore the chance for belly dancer to get a job is 3 times better than for older administrator. Or belly dancer have 3 times better chance to be employed than older administrator.
