A portion of the responses is shown in the accompanying table.

Provide the frequencies in the accompanying table. a-2. How many of the students were female? a-3. How many of the students felt that it was feasible for men and women to be just friends? b-2. What is the likelihood that a female student feels that men and women can be just friends? (Report the proportion rounded to 2 decimal places.) c.
