The best way to calculate percentages in the table to reflect cause and effect is by dividing the entries in the first row by 45 (the total number of students who passed) and those in the second row by 55 (the total number of students who failed). This will give the percentage of passed and failed students in each group relative to their respective totals, allowing for a more accurate comparison of the two groups.
