Morphology

graduated + table

The compound is fully compositional: 'graduated' means marked with a scale or calibration and 'table' is a chart of information, so a 'graduated table' will be understood as a table marked with intervals or scales for measurement or reference. This is a straightforward, cross-linguistically common modifier + noun construction and a B1 learner who knows both constituents should be able to infer the intended meaning.

Etymology

Graduated table comes from the idea of graduated meaning marked in small 'steps' and table meaning a chart, so you can picture a chart with rows like steps that show different levels. That's why a graduated table means a ranked 'scale' used to measure or compare things.
