Which value would best fit in the missing cell to suggest there is no evidence of an association between the variables?
The relative frequency table shows the percentage of each type of art (painting or sculpture) in a museum that would classify in the different styles (modern or classical). Based on these percentages, is there evidence to suggest an association between the variables? Explain your reasoning.
