Men : Women
At first 1 : 4 (20% is 1/5)
+ ? : -
---------------
End. 3 : 7 (30% (3/10) of total means 3 to men and 7 to women). Since no of women did not change, get LCM of 4 and 7 for women. LCM is 28.
Hence, Men : Women
7 : 28
+ ?
----------------
12 : 28
12u - 7u = 5u
Total 35u --- 35 ppl

Work backwards, starting with equal bars (black), then add/subtract to the respective bars in different colours (green, then purple then orange) to keep track of the 3 steps. Finally, the blue line is where the original amount was.

I hope it's correct ! I worked backwards.. Start from equal ◻️ since they ended with 6L of water each. Whatever was given, just have to take it back..
