Step-by-step explanation:
The question above is a two way table because it consists of two tables that are arranged in a column and row format or design.
A two way table is a table that up of values or numbers or frequencies for two variables. One of the variables is placed in a column while the other is placed in a row.
In the question above, we where given two variables, variable one is the main dish while variable two is the side dish. The proper way to display the data correctly is to
Create a 5-column table has 3 rows. The first column has entries Rice, Potatoes, Total. The second column is labeled Chicken with entries 21, 18, 39. The third column is labeled Fish with entries 6, 4, 10. The fourth column is labeled Vegetarian with entries 5, 8, 13. The fifth column is labeled total with entries 32, 30, 62.
Therefore, Option b. is the correct option.
