\(x-the \ number \ of \ women \\ x+4 -the \ number \ of \ men \\\\ x+x+4=12 \\\\ 2x+4=12 \\\\ 2x=12-4 \\\\ 2x=8 \\\\ \boxed{x=\frac{8}{2}=4 \ women} \\\\ x+4= \\\\ = 4+4\to\boxed{8 \ men}\)

total no. of people = 12
Let,
the no. of women be "x"
Also, the question says, there were 4 more man than women.
So, total no. of men = 4 + x

Now,
according to the question,
x + (4 + x) = 12
      2x + 4 = 12
            2x = 12 - 4
              x = 8 / 2
              x = 4

Now,
x + 4 = (4) + 4
        = 8

So, there were 4 women and 8 men in the jury
