i am seeking to solve a query regarding contingency table as a ways as I know contingency desk display matter no longer densities,and i am having difficult time comprehending this simple desk. My tries turned into basically calculating the marginal distribution however the possibilities failed to sum to one. for example I tried solving the first question via:
P ( A , B ) = ( P ( A , B , C ) d C
but I'm missing something is dC probabilities or just count?

This is discrete. You just need to add things up, no integrals required. For the conditional ones you have to scale by the probability of the given event.
In the one that asks for Pr(A,B/C=0), we see from that table that Pr(C=0)=.45, by adding up all the entries with C=0. We also know that Pr(A=1,B=1,C=0)=.05. In the new contingency table, the entry for A=1,B=1 will be .05 .45 = 1 9 . The values in the table always have to add up to 1.
