Answer:

332

Step-by-step explanation:

Since there is a ratio of 9:8 (women to men), the total should be 17. So even if there were 81 women and 72 men, the total ratio should still be 17. (In simplifiest form.)

So, 5,644 divided by 17=332

Since 9 is 1 more than 8, there are 332 more women than men.

Hope this made sense! I wasn't sure how to explain this.
