Out of a total of 500 people [both male and female], we need to find female Walmart shoppers.

If you down Walmart column and intersect with Women row, we see that Female Walmart Shoppers = 73

Hence,

Probability(women, Walmart) = 73/500 = 0.146

In percentage:

0.146 * 100 = 14.60%

The answer in percentage, rounded to nearest hundredth, is

14.60%
