Question

1. suppose some non - profit organization in the bay area contains 30 employees. 5 out of the 30 employees commute by bicycle. what is the relative frequency of those that commute by bicycle in this organization?

a 0.06
b 0.17
c 6
d 0.23

Explanation:

Step1: Recall relative - frequency formula

Relative frequency = $\frac{\text{Number of favorable cases}}{\text{Total number of cases}}$

Step2: Identify values

Number of employees commuting by bicycle = 5, Total number of employees = 30

Step3: Calculate relative frequency

Relative frequency = $\frac{5}{30}=\frac{1}{6}\approx0.17$

Answer:

B. 0.17
