Question

the table below shows the favorite movie theater snack for adults and children.

	popcorn	candy	hot dogs	total
children	15	8	2	25
total	35	10	5	50

of the adults surveyed, what is the conditional relative frequency for those who like to eat candy?
1/5
1/25
8/25
2/25

Explanation:

Step1: Recall conditional - relative - frequency formula

Conditional relative frequency is calculated as $\frac{\text{Frequency of the specific event}}{\text{Total frequency of the given condition}}$.

Step2: Identify relevant frequencies

The number of adults who like candy is 2, and the total number of adults surveyed is 25.

Step3: Calculate conditional relative frequency

The conditional relative frequency is $\frac{2}{25}$.

Answer:

2/25
