Answer:

A.To convert counts into relative frequencies, divide the count by the total number of items. In the above table, the first count is for men / Rom-com (count=6), so 6/60 = 0.1. Like the two-way frequency table, the totals in the right column and bottom row are called marginal distributions.

B.The sum of the relative frequency column is 2020, or 1.

The last entry of the cumulative relative frequency column is one, indicating that one hundred percent of the data has been accumulated.
