Answer 2

We conclude that having an after school job is independent of gender.

Explanation:

Out of 56 total boys 14 has got a job after school.

So, the percentage of getting job after school in boys is
`(14)/(56) * 100 = 25`%.

Again, out of 44 total girls 11 has got a job after school.

So, the percentage of getting job after school in girls is
`(11)/(44) * 100 = 25`%.

Therefore, the percentage of getting a job after school among boys and girls are the same and it is 25%.

Hence, we conclude that having an after school job is independent of gender. (Answer)
