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 nearset tenth
To find the relative frequency that the people who prefer hiking also prefer mountains, we need to use the given data.
First, we need to find the total number of people who prefer hiking:
45 (preference for mountains) + 20 (preference for seaside) + 12 (preference for island) = 77
Next, we need to find the number of people who prefer hiking and mountains:
45 (preference for hiking and mountains)
Now, we can calculate the relative frequency:
(45 / 77) * 100 = 58.4%
Therefore, the relative frequency that the people who prefer hiking also prefer mountains is 58.4%.
