Below is a contingency table presenting data from a large pharmaceutical company showing the number of men and women employed by the company divided into five regions where they operate

First of all, explore the table in order to decide whether there are gender differences between the regions (hint: work out the row percentages, which will show you the proportion of women employed in each region). Then carry out a chi-square analysis in order to test whether there are significant gender differences between regions.
Answer the following questions:
1. What is your conclusion?
2. What further information would you need in order to help you interpret the reasons behind your finding?
