A. B. C. D.C
relative frequency = class frequency/total # of observations
= 34/310 = 0.11
Remember that relative frequency is always a number between zero and one.
To find the relative frequency of a class, we need to divide the frequency of that class by the total number of observations. In this case, we are given that there are 310 observations.
The frequency of the 50-75 frequency class is given as 34. To find the relative frequency, we divide 34 by 310:
Relative frequency = Frequency of the class / Total number of observations Relative frequency = 34 / 310
Now, let's calculate the relative frequency:
Relative frequency = 0.10967741935483871
Rounding off to two decimal places, the relative frequency is approximately 0.11.
Therefore, the correct answer is option C: 0.11.
