Students were surveyed about their preference between dogs and cats. The following two-way table displays data for the sample of students who responded to the survey. Preference Male Female TOTAL Prefers dogs 36 20 56 Prefers cats 10 26 36 No preference 2 6 8 TOTAL 48 52 100 Of females in the sample, what fraction prefer cats? Choose 1 answer: 26 52 36 100 26 36 26 100

Answer 1

Based on the data presented, it can be concluded out of the 52 females 26 prefer cats.

How to read the graph?

To read the graph we must take into account that the rows refer to the preference of men, preference of women and those who have no preference.

On the other hand, the columns refer to the number of students of both genders who prefer or do not prefer each animal. Additionally, adding all the students of each gender we have the total of the sample.

According to the above, the total sample of female students would be 52.

• 20 + 26 + 6 = 52

According to the above, the fraction that expresses this relationship correctly is:

$\frac{26}{52}$
