Question

What is the marginal distribution of femalesFemales 620 other 1380

Answer 1

To find the marginal distribution of females, you need to calculate the proportion of females in relation to the total number of individuals in the dataset.

You have:

- Number of females = 620
- Number of others = 1380

First, calculate the total number of individuals:

\[
\text{Total} = \text{Number of females} + \text{Number of others} = 620 + 1380 = 2000
\]

Next, calculate the marginal distribution of females:

\[
\text{Proportion of females} = \frac{\text{Number of females}}{\text{Total}} = \frac{620}{2000}
\]

Now, perform the calculation:

\[
\frac{620}{2000} = 0.31
\]

To express this as a percentage:

\[
0.31 \times 100 = 31\%
\]

Thus, the marginal distribution of females is 31%.
