Solution

The correct two-way frequency table is B.

Here's how you can calculate it:

First, add up the number of males and females in each category.

For males 6’ or over, there are 12. For males under 6’, there are 86. So the total number of males is 12 + 86 = 98.

For females 6’ or over, there are 3. The number of females under 6’ is not given, but we know that the total number of adults is 200, and we've already accounted for 98 males, so there must be 200 - 98 = 102 females.

Since we know that 3 of these females are 6’ or over, the remaining 102 - 3 = 99 must be under 6’.

So the table looks like this:

6’ or over Under 6’ Total Male 12 86 98 Female 3 99 102 Total 15 185 200

This matches option B.
