Transcribed Image Text:**Survey Results on Smartphone Ownership**
A survey was conducted with 100 participants to determine smartphone ownership. The participants were asked whether they own a smartphone or not. The table below provides a summary of the survey results, divided by gender:
| Ownership Status | Female | Male | Total |
|------------------------|--------|------|-------|
| Owns a smartphone | 46 | 24 | 70 |
| Does not own a smartphone | 18 | 12 | 30 |
| Totals | 64 | 36 | 100 |
From the table, it can be observed that out of the 100 participants:
- 70 people own a smartphone (46 females and 24 males).
- 30 people do not own a smartphone (18 females and 12 males).
This data helps in understanding smartphone ownership distribution across genders among the surveyed group.
