Answer 1

Alright, so with a 2x3 table there are six categories. Since there's one variable (gender) that's separated into two, we put those in. In addition, since there are 3 ways to separate how many times people wash their hands every day, we put those in, so it would be something like

Gender     Washes hands 1 or less times per day    

Male    66

Female   2


Washes hands 2-7 times/day    Washes hands 8+ times/day

583                                             89
160                                             42
