Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -A two-way ANOVA is used to estimate how the mean of a quantitative variable changes according to the levels of two categorical variables. Use a two-way ANOVA when you want to know how two independent variables, in combination, affect a dependent variable.
Detailed explanation-2: -One can use a two-way ANOVA test to check the effect of two factors on a dependent variable and if there is any interaction effect between the two. For example, a farmer can test the effect of fertilizer and watering frequency on the crop yield they get to harvest.
