Not sure why I avoided this one.

I really enjoyed this challenge. After completing, I went back and looked at others. It is interesting how many different ways were thought of to get to the end results.

Solved!

 

I was confused why we were totaling all the groups. For example, if someone is a white woman, I figured her results would be in both the white line and the woman line. So then if we're totaling white + woman, she's getting counted twice (more than with age and education, etc). Initially, I just took one of the subgroups - household income - and used that to arrive at my total population (which was still weird, since you shouldn't really be adding %s like we're doing in this exercise in general)
