Thank you for using a SAS supplied data set we can run code.

Tabulate does not do sums of different variables. You would need Proc report for that .

 

proc report data=sashelp.class;
   column sex age height tot totpct ;
   define sex /group;
   define age / sum;
   define height/ sum;
   define tot /Computed "Total";
   define totpct/Computed format=percent8.1;
   compute tot;
      tot = age.sum +height.sum;
   endcomp;
   compute totpct;
      totpct = age.sum/(age.sum+height.sum);
   endcomp;
   rbreak after/summarize;
run;

Or use proc summary to summarize the age and height by sex in a data step first and precalculate the row summaries. Note that Proc summary will provide an overall summary.

proc summary data=sashelp.class;
   class sex;
   var age height;
   output out=work.summary sum=;
run;

The _type_ variable in the output data indicates which combinations of the class variables appear. You could use this in a data step to calculate the sum of age and height plus the desired percent for each row.

Then use Proc Print to display the result.
