What percentage of the high frequency words confirm the hypothesis that high frequency words are short? 

Here our hypothesis is: high frequency words are short.
In the table, words with, high frequency and long = 20
                                           high frequency and short = 60
Total high frequency words = 60 +20 =80
That satisfying our hypothesis = 60
Percentage that support our hypothesis = (60/80) * 100 = 75%.
Similarly you can attempt 3.4

Thanks and Regards
