Two-Way Frequency Tables

Front

What is a two-way frequency table?

Back

A two-way frequency table is a statistical table that displays the frequency counts of two categorical variables, allowing for the analysis of the relationship between them.

Front

What is marginal relative frequency?

Back

Marginal relative frequency is the ratio of the total frequency of a category to the total number of observations, expressed as a percentage.

Front

How do you calculate the percentage of a subgroup in a two-way frequency table?

Back

To calculate the percentage of a subgroup, divide the frequency of the subgroup by the total frequency and multiply by 100.

Front

What does it mean if a percentage is greater than 50% in a two-way frequency table?

Back

It indicates that the majority of the observations fall into that category or subgroup.

Front

What is the purpose of a two-way frequency table?

Back

The purpose is to summarize and analyze the relationship between two categorical variables.

Front

How can you find the conditional relative frequency from a two-way frequency table?

Back

Conditional relative frequency is found by dividing the frequency of a specific category by the total frequency of the row or column it belongs to.

Front

What is the difference between marginal frequency and conditional frequency?

Back

Marginal frequency refers to the total counts for a single category, while conditional frequency refers to counts within a specific condition or subgroup.

Front

If 30 out of 100 people bought no food, what is the marginal relative frequency of people who bought no food?

Back

The marginal relative frequency is 30%.

Front

What is the formula for calculating relative frequency?

Back

Relative frequency = (Frequency of the category) / (Total frequency) x 100.

Front

How do you interpret a two-way frequency table?

Back

Interpretation involves analyzing the frequencies to understand the relationship between the two variables and identifying trends or patterns.
