Stuck on this certain Q:

A group of investigators decided to test the hypothesis that use of postmenopausal hormone replacement therapy increases the risk of breast cancer. They identified 200 women with newly diagnosed breast cancer, and 200 women of the same age, from the same neighborhoods as the first group of women, who did not have breast cancer. Among the women with breast cancer, 100 reported having used postmenopausal hormones. Among those without breast cancer, 70 reported use of such hormones. Set up the 2x2 Table that summarizes this information and then a nswer T or F for each of the following: a) *(1 point) The risk of breast cancer among women who used postmenopausal hormones is 0.59 or 59%. b) *(1 point) The odds ratio for breast cancer, comparing women who have used postmenopausal hormones to women who have not used postmenopausal hormones is 1.85
 
I was wondering if I did it wrong?
