Answer 1

0.24

Explanation:

Relative frequency is calculated by dividing the number of occurrences of a specific event by the total number of events.

In this case, the specific event is male students with mothers aged at least 30 but less than 35, and the total number of events is the total number of male students.

Relative Frequency = (Number of male students with mothers aged 30-34) / (Total number of male students)

Relative Frequency = 11 / 46

Relative Frequency = 0.2391

Rounded to two decimal places, the relative frequency is 0.24.
