A study was conducted surveying men and women for high blood pressure (HTN). The results showed that there were 50 men and 75 women per 100,000 who had HTN. The male and female population totals were 230,000 and 189,000, respectively.

• What is the absolute number of men and women affected (i.e., how many men and women were identified with HTN in this study)?

• Is this incidence or prevalence? Why?
