Answer 1

To compute the row percentages, divide each cell in the table by its respective row total and multiply by 100.

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to compute the row percentages, you need to divide each cell in the table by its respective row total and multiply by 100 to get a percentage. Let's calculate the row percentages for the medium category:

For the 'Total' row, the row total is 1005. So, the row percentage for 'Yes' is (809/1005) * 100 = 80.498%, and the row percentage for 'No' is (196/1005) * 100 = 19.502%.

For the 'Medium' row, the row total is 604. So, the row percentage for 'Yes' is (505/604) * 100 = 83.612%, and the row percentage for 'No' is (99/604) * 100 = 16.388%.

For the 'High' row, the row total is 205. So, the row percentage for 'Yes' is (70/205) * 100 = 34.146%, and the row percentage for 'No' is (135/205) * 100 = 65.854%.
