Gloria surveyed all of the campers to determine their preferred field trip. The results are displayed in the table which of the following is a relative frequency that can be found with the table? Around the percentage to the nearest tenth.
To find the relative frequency of each field trip, we need to divide the frequency of each field trip by the total number of campers surveyed.
Field Trip Frequency
Beach 30
Museum 20
Zoo 25
Park 15
Total 90
Relative frequency of Beach = 30/90 = 0.3333 or 33.3%
Relative frequency of Museum = 20/90 = 0.2222 or 22.2%
Relative frequency of Zoo = 25/90 = 0.2778 or 27.8%
Relative frequency of Park = 15/90 = 0.1667 or 16.7%
