Category: Submitted Accepted D drama: dds A*dds D comedy: dcs B*dcs F drama: fds A*fds F comedy: fcs B*fcs
wherein, A = acceptance rate of drama; B = acceptance rate of comedy.
The acceptance rate of drama is lower than that of comedy A<B
The acceptance rate of domestic films is higher than that of foreign countries. (A*dds + B*dcs)/(dds + dcs) > (A*fds + B*fcs)/(fds + fcs)
Let dcs/(dds+dcs) = R1; and fcs/(fds + fcs) = R2 (the ratio of comedy to films ) then A*(1-R1) + B*R1 > A*(1-R2) + B*R2 R1*(B-A) > R2*(B-A) Since B>A, it must be R1>R2.
