Please could someone help me on this question. I am really stuck:

A human trait involving finger length in humans is recessive in males but dominant in females (This is true!). A survey of 938 college students found that 385 of 438 males and 104 of 500 females had dominant phenotypes.

What are the allele frequencies?

Thank you in advance! Smiling Face with Open Mouth

If the recessive phenotype is shown by 449/938 individuals, ther recessive allele has a frequency of 0.692 and the dominant allele has a frequency of 0.308.
