10 A sports club has 500 members The committee plans to buil

10. A sports club has 500 members. The committee plans to build a clubhouse. Because the issue is so important for the club, the committee will build the cabin only if a majority of the club members can be expected to support the plans.

A meeting was arranged. Unfortunately, only 185 members came. Of these, 125 wanted to build the club and the other didn\'t want it to be built.

Because so many members did not attend the meeting, the Board conducted a complementary study. They called 75 randomly selected members who were not present at the meeting. Of these, 26 answered yes and 49 no.

Do you think the committee should decide to build the cottage ?

Taking into account the results of both the meeting and the supplementary examination.
