Add Sex to the Row, label Male and Female, Put WORSUM2 in Column

Copy with extra space around it, paste a copy next to it

Change second chart to % of row total

For Both Charts, reorder the DV so the 5+ is second, by clicking and dragging it

Now Copy them both and paste below

For Both Copies Replace Sex With, race and add labels Race, and add labels

Then copy these Race and Wordsum Charts and paste them below and replace race with Degree

Add labels for degree

Next Check to see if your analysis is statistically significant

It seems that gender does not matter but that race and degree do.
