Table 6-4:

Summary of the

Marginal Distributions

for the Age Classification

Note:

The marginal distributions (percent) column should add up to 100%.

Because of rounding to two decimal places, it added up to 100.01%.

Observe that the sum of the marginal distributions (percentages) should

always equal to 100 %. From the marginal distributions, one can observe

that the age group of 29 years and younger, had the smallest marginal

distribution. The marginal distributions for the other age groups do not have

a large variability in the percentages. From the marginal distributions, one

can also observe that the age group of 30 - 39, had the largest marginal

distribution.

These marginal distributions for the age classification for

Table 6-4

are

graphically displayed in

Figure 6-2
