This worksheet introduces students to two-way frequency tables and how they can be used to calculate probabilities. Two-way frequency tables help organize data about two categorical variables. In this case, the variables are the student’s gender (male or female) and their science class (Biology, Chemistry, or Physics).
The purpose of this worksheet is to help students practice:
- Completing two-way frequency tables: Students fill in missing values based on the given information.
- Calculating probabilities from two-way frequency tables: Students use the completed table to calculate probabilities of different combinations of gender and science class.
By working through these problems, students learn how to analyze and interpret data presented in a two-way frequency table. These skills are important for understanding relationships between categorical variables and making predictions based on data.
