Explanation:

Step1: Fill in the cells for each ethnicity and smoking level

For "1 - 10" smoking level:

• African American: 9,886
• Native Hawaiian: 2,745
• Latino: 12,831
• Japanese American: 8,378
• White: 7,650
• TOTALS: \(9886 + 2745 + 12831 + 8378 + 7650 = 41490\)

For "11 - 20" smoking level:

• African American: 6,314
• Native Hawaiian: 3,062
• Latino: 4,932
• Japanese American: 10,680
• White: 9,877
• TOTALS: \(6314 + 3062 + 4932 + 10680 + 9877 = 34865\)

For "21 - 30" smoking level:

• African American: 1,671
• Native Hawaiian: 1,419
• Latino: 1,406
• Japanese American: 4,715
• White: 6,062
• TOTALS: \(1671 + 1419 + 1406 + 4715 + 6062 = 15273\)

For "31+" smoking level:

• African American: 799
• Native Hawaiian: 788
• Latino: 800
• Japanese American: 2,305
• White: 3,970
• TOTALS: \(799 + 788 + 800 + 2305 + 3970 = 8662\)

Step2: Calculate the totals for each ethnicity (row "TOTALS")

• African American: \(9886 + 6314 + 1671 + 799 = 18670\)
• Native Hawaiian: \(2745 + 3062 + 1419 + 788 = 6413\)
• Latino: \(12831 + 4932 + 1406 + 800 = 19969\)
• Japanese American: \(8378 + 10680 + 4715 + 2305 = 26078\)
• White: \(7650 + 9877 + 6062 + 3970 = 27559\)

Step3: Calculate the grand total (last cell of "TOTALS" row)

Grand total: \(41490 + 34865 + 15273 + 8662 = 100290\) (or sum of all ethnicity totals: \(18670 + 6413 + 19969 + 26078 + 27559 = 100290\))

31+	799	788	800	2,305	3,970	8,662
