Answer:
Dramas Comedies
Males 9 31
Females 36 24
Step-by-step explanation:
It is given that Lamar surveyed 40 males and 60 females about whether they prefer dramas or comedies.
Total males = 40
Total females = 60
Total people surveyed = 40 + 60 = 100
It is given that 55% of surveyed people preferred comedies.
People preferred comedies = [tex]100\times \frac{55}{100}=55[/tex]
It is given that males who preferred comedies = 31
Males who preferred drama is the difference of number of males and males who preferred comedies.
Males, drama = 40 - 31 = 9
Females who preferred comedies is the difference of people who preferred comedies and males who preferred comedies.
Females, comedies = 55 - 31 = 24
Females who preferred drama is the difference of number of females and females who preferred comedies.
Females, drama = 60 - 24 = 36
Therefore the table can be filled as
Dramas Comedies
Males 9 31
Females 36 24
