Intro to Two Way Tables and Relative Frequency is a Grade 8 mathematics worksheet that introduces how two-way tables organize data for different groups across multiple categories. Students answer one comprehension video item and 10 multiple-choice questions about identifying a table’s purpose, recognizing relative frequency as a decimal or percentage, reading totals, comparing categories, and interpreting percentages from survey data. This free printable worksheet with an answer key helps students connect table entries to subgroup totals and use relative frequency to describe patterns. Items ask students to determine the most popular subject for a grade, calculate or identify percentages for preferences and bedtime information, and find a surveyed group’s size. It is suitable for guided instruction, independent practice, or a quick formative check after teaching two-way tables and relative frequency.

This Grade 8 mathematics worksheet uses one comprehension video item and 10 multiple-choice questions to practice reading two-way tables and interpreting relative frequency. Students identify a table’s purpose, distinguish decimal and percentage representations, compare categories within grades, read subgroup totals, and determine percentages from survey data.
Begin by modeling how a two-way table organizes two categorical variables, then show students how to locate a row, column, subgroup total, and corresponding percentage. Use the worksheet’s questions about favorite subjects, curfews, and bedtimes to have students explain which group total they used before selecting an answer. Review the relative-frequency items by asking students to express the same relationship as a decimal and a percentage.
Students may confuse the total number surveyed with the number in a particular grade or category, especially when answering the questions about 8th-grade curfew and bedtime data. They may also read across the wrong grade or subject category when identifying the most popular subject or a relative frequency. Watch for students choosing a whole number when the question asks for a percentage, or treating a decimal and its percentage form as unrelated values.
