basically this question asks about ATTRIBUTABLE RISKS
calculate the following
risk of fracture in untreated women=10.1%
risk in treated =5.4
hence excess risk=(10.1-5.4)%
we know percentage means per 100
so (10.1-5.4) fractures are saved by treating 100 women
hence to save one frfracture u treat
100 / (10.1-5.4)
