Please help! I'm really confused on how to do this


A CBS News poll conducted June 10 and 11, 2006, among a nationwide random sample of 651 adults, asked those adults about their party affiliation (Democrat, Republican or none) and their opinion of how the US economy was changing ("getting better," "getting worse" or "about the same"). The results are shown in the table below.


  better same worse
Republican 38 104 44
Democrat 12 87 137
none 21 90 118




Express each of your first five answers as a decimal and round to the nearest 0.001 (in other words, type 0.123, not 12.3% or 0.123456).


What fraction of survey respondents identified themselves as Democrats? Correct


What fraction of survey respondents thought the economy was getting better? 


What fraction of Democrats thought the economy was getting better? 


Among survey respondents who thought the economy was getting better, what fraction were Democrats? 


What fraction of survey respondents were Democrats who thought the economy was getting better?
