the fairest school 20% are below 16 years old
1/3 are teachers which is equals to = 21
Let’s start solving:
=> 1/3 of 100% = ( 100 / 3 = 33.33% )
thus 33.33% = 21
=> 21 x 3 = 63, is the total number of people in the school.
Let’s try solving the number of people below 16 years old
Then there are 20% of it:
=> 63 * .20 = 12.6
Thus, there are around 13 people who are 16 years old younger.</span>
To avoid such problems when comparing the categorical variables in a two-way frequency table, we need to exam the table by separate categories (rows or columns). When a relative frequency is determined based upon a row or column, it is called a "conditional" relative frequency.
Two-way relative frequency tables show what percent of data points fit in each category. ...
For example, here's how we would make column relative frequencies:
Step 1: Find the totals for each column.
Step 2: Divide each cell count by its column total and convert to a percentage.
