A survey was done where males and females were asked if they would prefer to eat chicken or steak. The results of the survey are shown in the two-way frequency table.
Chicken Steak
Male 0.236 0.218
Female 0.311 0.235
What percent of the males surveyed prefer chicken?
Enter your answer to the nearest tenth of a percent in the box.
Number of tickets for international flights = 36 Total number of tickets = 95 The probability that a randomly selected airline ticket is for an international flight = 36 / 95 = 0.3789
The probability that a randomly selected airline ticket is for an international flight as a percent rounded to the nearest tenth of a percent = 0.3789 x 100 = 37.9%
% of males surveyed = 0.236 + 0.218 = 0.454 = 45.4% % of males surveyed who prefer chicken = 0.236 out of 0.454 = 0.236 / 0.454 = 0.5198 = 51.58% = 52.0%
