Explanation:

Question Breakdown:

- Survey 271 students

- 121 males respond, 92 attending field trip

- 31 females not attending field trip

What percent of females are attending the class field trip?​

The two-way table or the class whether they are attending the field trip or not is attached below,

The table tells us

• Males who are not attending : 121 - 192 = 29

• Total females who responded : 271 - 121 = 150

• Females who are attending : 250 - 31 = 119

• Total students who are attending : 91 + 119 = 211

• Total students who are not attending : 29 +31 = 60

There are a total of 150 female students and 119 of them are attending the field trip

`(119)/(150) = 0.79 x 100 = 79%`
