Crosstabs
Lesson 3: Proportions
In this lesson, we’ll look at the basics of using proportions and percentages to summarize different aspects of data with two or more variables. We’ll also add another powerful Excel tool to our toolbelts: crosstabs/pivot tables.
Lab: Proportions
Hopefully you’re not getting tired of coffee talk yet, because in this lab, we’ll create a crosstab for two of the categorical variables in the coffee data set we’ve been using. Using pivot tables, we’ll organize these categories into raw counts and proportions in a couple different ways.
