How do you calculate the percentage from a frequency table?

Back

To calculate the percentage, divide the frequency of the specific category by the total frequency and multiply by 100.

What does it mean if a percentage is high in a two-way frequency table?

Back

A high percentage indicates that a large proportion of the total falls into that specific category, suggesting a strong relationship or preference.

What is the total frequency in a two-way frequency table?

Back

The total frequency is the sum of all frequencies in the table, representing the total number of observations.

Front

How can you find the percentage of a subgroup in a two-way frequency table?

Back

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

What is a marginal frequency in a two-way frequency table?

Back

Marginal frequency refers to the totals found in the margins of the table, showing the total counts for each category.

Front

What is a joint frequency in a two-way frequency table?

Back

Joint frequency is the count of occurrences for a specific combination of categories in the table.

Front

How do you interpret the data in a two-way frequency table?

Back

Interpreting data involves analyzing the frequencies and percentages to understand relationships and trends between the two variables.
