Answer:

may have different df values but they all have the same denominator

Explanation:

In a two-factor analysis of variance, the F-ratios for factor A, factor B, and the AxB interaction _____. may have different df values but they all have the same denominator

In two--factor analysis of variance, the estimates of the variance can be obtained by partitioning the total sum of squares into three components corresponding to the three possible sources of variation , viz; Between Rows, Between Columns, and Within Samples or error.

As the number of rows and columns may differ the degrees of freedom differ with them.

In other words

Total df= Rows df + Columns df + Error df

Since the variance is identically the same for each row of the c values and variance is the same for each observation in the jth column of r values the sum of squares becomes an identity.

Therefore it may have different df values but they all have the same denominator.
