Based on the information provided, we need to determine the number of males and females who experienced weight loss after using the weight-loss supplement.
To find the number of males who experienced weight loss, subtract the number of males who did not experience weight loss (6) from the total number of males (25): 25 - 6 = 19 males experienced weight loss.
Similarly, to find the number of females who experienced weight loss, subtract the number of females who did not experience weight loss (8) from the total number of females (50): 50 - 8 = 42 females experienced weight loss.
Therefore, 19 out of 25 males and 42 out of 50 females experienced weight loss after two weeks of using the weight-loss supplement.
