Refer to the example below.

a. A joint relative frequency in a two-way relative frequency table tells you what portion of the entire data set falls into the intersection of a particular value of one variable and a particular value of the other variable. For example, the joint relative frequency of students surveyed who are girls and prefer dogs as pets is 0.2, or 20%. What is the joint relative frequency of students surveyed who are boys and prefer cats as pets?

b. A marginal relative frequency in a two-way relative frequency table tells you what portion of the entire data set represents a particular value of just one of the variables. For example, the marginal relative frequency of students surveyed who prefer dogs as pets is 0.45, or 45%. What is the marginal relative frequency of students surveyed who are girls?

Example:

Create a two-way relative frequency table for Jenna's data.

A Divide each number in the two-way frequency table from the previous example by the grand total. Write the quotients as decimals.

 Preferred Gender / Pet  Pog  Cat  Other  Total  Girl 840=0.2 Boy  Total 1840=0.454040=1\begin{array}{|c|c|c|c|c|} \hline \text { Preferred Gender / Pet } & \text { Pog } & \text { Cat } & \text { Other } & \text { Total } \\ \hline \text { Girl } & \frac{8}{40}=0.2 & & & \\ \hline \text { Boy } & & & & \\ \hline \text { Total } & \frac{18}{40}=0.45 & & & \frac{40}{40}=1 \\ \hline \end{array}

B Check by adding the joint relative frequencies in a row or column to see if the sum equals the row or column's marginal relative frequency.

Girl row: 0.2++=\quad 0.2+\quad+\quad=

Boy row: ++=\quad+\quad\quad+\quad\quad=

Dog column: 0.2+=0.45\quad 0.2+\quad\quad=0.45

Cat column: +=\quad\quad+\quad\quad=

Other column: +=\quad\quad+\quad\quad=
