Country Z is considering a nationwide organ‑donation programme. The programme will be approved only if at least \(65\%\) of the total population gives unconditional support for organ donation. Region A has a population of \(2\) million, where \(70\%\) of people give unconditional support, \(20\%\) support only if the recipient is also Muslim, and \(10\%\) oppose. Region B has a population of \(3\) million, where \(50\%\) give unconditional support, \(30\%\) support only if the recipient is Muslim, and \(20\%\) oppose. a) Does the programme meet the required threshold based on the current unconditional support? Show your calculation. b) If the programme does not meet the threshold, what is the minimum increase in the unconditional‑support percentage in Region B (keeping Region A unchanged) that would raise the overall unconditional support to exactly \(65\%\)?
