Answer:
76
Step-by-step explanation:
I rewrote the question so I wouldn't have to keep going back to the picture.
A poll asked 1000 adults who own smartphones where they put their smartphone while sleeping. The following two-way table of relative frequencies shows the data collected on age and smartphone habits. Of the adults polled, 200 were 65 or older.
How many of the adults polled that were 65 or older sleep with their smartphone within reach?
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I bet if I called this a two- way table of "percentages, written as decimals", it would make more sense.
Total number of adults 65 and older = 200. The 0.38 of them that sleep with their phone in reach = 38% of them. Multiply 200 x 0.38 = 76
To check the math, 200 x 0.62 = 124, and 124 + 76 = 200.
