READING TWO-WAY TABLES SOLUTIONS
TASK 1 Where do you live?
1 7 year 3 students live in an apartment.
2 51 students in year 5 live in a house.
3 Number of students living in houses = 48 + 32 + 51
= 131
TASK 2 Cold weather
1 124 people were surveyed altogether.
2 46 people wore both gloves and a scarf.
3 19 people wore gloves but no scarf.
4 78 people wore a scarf.
5 27 tells you how many people wore neither scarf nor gloves.
6 Since most people coming into the store wore scarves and/or gloves, it would seem there is
a demand for them. The scarf seems more popular than gloves.
TASK 3 Complete the two-way table
460 – 139 = 321
321 – 253 = 68
139 – 87 = 52
253 + 52 = 305
68 + 87 = 155
Check: 305 + 155 = 460
