The null and alternative hypothesis:

H0: There is no relation between gender and the opinion on use of medical marijuana

H1: There is a relation between gender and the opinion on use of medical marijuana

The value of test statistic is:

Chi-square = 0.358

P-value = 0.836

Conclusion: The p-value of Chi-square test is greater than 0.20. Hence we accept null hypothesis at 20% level of significance and conclude that there is no relation between gender and the opinion on use of medical marijuana.
