The value for n represents the number of homes with high levels of that fungi. Reading across the rows, the numbers correspond to the number of those homes with high levels of the other fungi. For example, there are 44 homes with high levels of airborne Aspergillus. Of those 44 homes, 3 have high levels of airborne Cladosporium.
