Question

How is a two-way frequency table used to approximate conditional probabilities?(1 point)
Responses

by adding the two conditions and dividing by the total for the entire two-way frequency table
by adding the two conditions and dividing by the total for the entire two-way frequency table

by writing the ratio of the intersection of the two conditions with the given condition in the denominator and the preference in the numerator
by writing the ratio of the intersection of the two conditions with the given condition in the denominator and the preference in the numerator

by writing the totals for the two conditions from the table as a fraction, decimal, or percentage
by writing the totals for the two conditions from the table as a fraction, decimal, or percentage

by finding the average of the two conditions
by finding the average of the two conditions

Answer 1

Select the option that says you form a ratio of the intersection to the given condition — i.e., conditional probability ≈ (count in the intersection) / (total count for the given condition).
