To determine the correct answers for the drop-down menus, let's explore what each phrase means and how to compute the necessary values.
1. Percentage of the 25-34 age group compared with the total number of students:
- First, identify the marginal total for the age group 25-34 which is 4,293.
- Next, identify the total number of students which is 19,558.
- To find the percentage, divide the marginal total of the 25-34 age group by the total number of students and multiply by 100 to convert it into a percentage:
[tex]\[
\frac{4,293}{19,558} \times 100 = 21.95009714694754\%
\][/tex]
- Therefore, the percentage of the 25-34 age group compared to the total number of students is approximately 21.95%.
2. Relative frequency of females in the 35-plus age group:
- First, identify the number of females in the 35+ age group which is 2,124.
- Next, identify the marginal total for the 35+ age group which is 3,193.
- To find the relative frequency of females in this age group, divide the number of females by the total number of students in the 35+ group and multiply by 100:
[tex]\[
\frac{2,124}{3,193} \times 100 = 66.52051362355151\%
\][/tex]
- Therefore, the relative frequency of females in the 35-plus age group is approximately 66.52%.
Given these calculations, we can choose the correct answers from the drop-down menus:
- The percentage of the 25-34 age group compared with the total number of students is 21.95%.
- The relative frequency of females in the 35-plus age group is 66.52%.
