How can I create a table like this in Latex?



enter image description here



I have tried but it didn't work. I need also that it is enumerated so that it appears in the List of Tables. It doesn't matter if it is not coloured, as long as the first two rows are bold.



begin{center}
begin{tabular}{ |c|c|c|c|c| }
hline
multicolumn{5}{|c|}{Number of cells per type} \
hline

a& b& c& d& e\
hline
44 & 39 & 7 & 32 &22 \

hline
end{tabular}
end{center}

  • Do you need the first two columns to be narrower than the next three, as appears to be the case in the screenshot you posted? Please advise.

    Don't mix-and-mismatch visual cues and metaphores: if you employ colored rows, don't employ horizontal rules. And, for sure, you can omit all vertical rules -- they're not needed.



    enter image description here



    documentclass{article}
    usepackage[table,svgnames]{xcolor}
    usepackage{array} % for 'extrarowheight' macro
    begin{document}

    begin{center}
    sffamily
    setlengthextrarowheight{2pt} % optional
    setlengthtabcolsep{9pt} % default: 6pt
    begin{tabular}{ ccccc }
    %hline
    rowcolor{LightBlue} multicolumn{5}{c}{Number of cells per type} \
    %hline
    rowcolor{LightBlue} a & b & c & d & e\
    %hline
    44 & 39 & 7 & 32 & 22 \

    end{tabular}

            Don't mix-and-mismatch visual cues and metaphores: if you employ colored rows, don't employ horizontal rules. And, for sure, you can omit all vertical rules -- they're not needed.



            enter image description here



            documentclass{article}
            usepackage[table,svgnames]{xcolor}
            usepackage{array} % for 'extrarowheight' macro
            begin{document}

            begin{center}
            sffamily
            setlengthextrarowheight{2pt} % optional
            setlengthtabcolsep{9pt} % default: 6pt
            begin{tabular}{ ccccc }
            %hline
            rowcolor{LightBlue} multicolumn{5}{c}{Number of cells per type} \
