Question

Given the frequency table below, what is the relative frequency of the data value 7?

Value | Frequency
4 | 7
5 | 6
6 | 4
7 | 3
a) 0.1
b) 0.15
c) 0.2
d) 0.25

Answer 1

The relative frequency of the data value 7 from the given frequency table is 0.15, after dividing the frequency of the value by the total number of data points.

Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate the relative frequency of the data value 7, we need to divide the frequency of the data value by the total number of data values.

The frequency for the value 7 is 3. Next, we add up all the frequencies to get the total number of data points: 7 (for value 4) + 6 (for value 5) + 4 (for value 6) + 3 (for value 7), which equals 20. Now, we divide the frequency of the data value 7 by the total number of data values: 3 ÷ 20 = 0.15.
