We need to set up a double matrix, which is hard to reproduce in text form.
The key fact is: 43% are in group 1. 57% are in group 2. 28% are treated by A. 72% are treated by B.
21% are in group 2 and are treated by A.
36% are in group 2 and are treated by B.
So, the answer is
36/57, which is approximately 63%.
The answer is thus (E).
