Use the table to answer the question.

Swimming 12 53 40
Given the data in the table, what is the relative frequency that the people who prefer hiking also prefer mountains? Round the percentage to the nearest tenth.
(1 point)
The relative frequency is calculated by dividing the number of people who prefer hiking and mountains by the total number of people who prefer hiking.
From the table, we can see that 45 people prefer hiking and mountains.
So, the relative frequency that the people who prefer hiking also prefer mountains is 45/45 = 1.
This can be written as 100%, rounded to the nearest tenth.

Apologies for the mistake in my previous response. Let me recalculate the relative frequency correctly.
To find the relative frequency that the people who prefer hiking also prefer mountains, we need to divide the number of people who prefer hiking and mountains (45) by the total number of people who prefer hiking, which is the sum of the values in the Hiking column (45 + 20 + 12 = 77).
So, the relative frequency is 45/77, which is approximately 0.5844 or 58.4% when rounded to the nearest tenth.
To find the relative frequency that people who prefer hiking also prefer mountains, we need to divide the number of people who prefer hiking and mountains by the total number of people who prefer hiking.
In the table, we see that there are 45 people who prefer hiking and mountains. To find the total number of people who prefer hiking, we add up the numbers in the hiking row, which gives us a total of 45 + 20 + 12 = 77.
Next, we divide the number of people who prefer hiking and mountains (45) by the total number of people who prefer hiking (77), and then multiply the result by 100 to get a percentage.
(45 / 77) * 100 ≈ 58.4
Rounding to the nearest tenth, the relative frequency that people who prefer hiking also prefer mountains is 58.4%.
