Complete the contingency table and use it to solve the problem.

The partially filled contingency table gives the frequencies of the data on age (in years) and sex from the residents of a retirement home.
Age (yrs)

What is the proportion of male residents in the age group 60-69?

0.50

0.44

0.35

0.60

0.55

60-69 70-79 Over 79 Total
Male 11 9 5
Female 9 2 4
Total

Solution

Total number of males = 11 + 9 + 5 = 25

Number in 60-69 = 11

Thus, proportion = 11 / 25

= 0.44

Hope this helps.
