$P(female~and~2)=\frac{29}{99}\approx0.2929$

Work Step by Step

The sample space: 297 individuals. So, $N(S)=297$ According to the cell in the first row, third column: $N(female~and~2)=87$ Using the Empirical Approach (page 258): $P(female~and~2)=\frac{N(female~and~2)}{N(S)}=\frac{87}{297}=\frac{29}{99}\approx0.2929$
