Nine children, aged 4 and 5, chose between chips and fruit for a snack. The table shows the choices they made. Which two-way table correctly compares the categorical data? http://prntscr.com/5hvlp4 @iGreen. @iGreen @ganeshie8

Well, what do you think?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

We can just use the information in the table. There's a total of four 4-year-olds, and five 5-year-olds.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So that takes out options A and D.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

B?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

6 picked chips, and 3 picked fruit, so which table(out of Option B and C) has 6 chips and 3 fruit? Add the columns, like for Option A add 4 + 3 = 7 people picked chips, and add 3 + 4 = 7 people picked fruit..which is incorrect.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yep, B is correct! :D

OpenStudy (anonymous):

How can 6 pick chips when there is only 4 4 year olds?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

The 4-year-olds aren't the only one's who picked chips..some of the 5-year olds picked chips too.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Understand?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yeah but the graph is by age.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

??

OpenStudy (anonymous):

What?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

The table is by age and what food they picked.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yeah, I don't understand how you get 6.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Three four-year-olds and Three five-year-olds picked chips. So 6 total chips were picked.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I think its B..

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I already said that was correct..lol.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Oh lol. I thought you said it was incorrect.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

:P
