In this case, the data set contains 15 values ranging from 2 to 25. We divided these values into five distinct ranges: <strong>1\u20135<\/strong>, <strong>6\u201310<\/strong>, <strong>11\u201315<\/strong>, <strong>16\u201320<\/strong>, and <strong>21\u201325<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To construct the frequency table, we first counted how many values fell within each range. For the <strong>11\u201315<\/strong> range, we found four data points: <strong>12<\/strong>, <strong>12<\/strong>, <strong>13<\/strong>, and <strong>15<\/strong>. This leads to a count of <strong>4<\/strong> for this range.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Next, we calculate the relative frequency, which is the proportion of values in each range compared to the total number of values. The relative frequency for the <strong>11\u201315<\/strong> range is calculated by dividing the number of values in that range (4) by the total number of values (15):<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>[<br>\\text{Relative Frequency} = \\frac{\\text{Number of Values in Range}}{\\text{Total Number of Values}} = \\frac{4}{15} \\approx 0.267<br>]<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This relative frequency indicates that approximately <strong>26.67%<\/strong> of the data falls within the <strong>11\u201315<\/strong> range. Understanding relative frequency is crucial as it provides insight into how data is distributed across various ranges, helping in making statistical inferences and decisions based on the data set. In practical applications, such as surveys or tests, relative frequency can help in understanding trends or patterns in the responses, guiding further research or analysis.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Generate a frequency table for the following data: 3, 12, 25, 2, 3, 6, 17, 17, 15, 13, 20, 12, 21, 18, 19.Use the ranges listed in the table below: Range Number of Values Relative Frequency1 \u2013 56 \u2013 1011 \u2013 1516 \u2013 2021 \u2013 25 What is the relative frequency for the range 11 [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"site-sidebar-layout":"default","site-content-layout":"","ast-site-content-layout":"default","site-content-style":"default","site-sidebar-style":"default","ast-global-header-display":"","ast-banner-title-visibility":"","ast-main-header-display":"","ast-hfb-above-header-display":"","ast-hfb-below-header-display":"","ast-hfb-mobile-header-display":"","site-post-title":"","ast-breadcrumbs-content":"","ast-featured-img":"","footer-sml-layout":"","ast-disable-related-posts":"","theme-transparent-header-meta":"","adv-header-id-meta":"","stick-header-meta":"","header-above-stick-meta":"","header-main-stick-meta":"","header-below-stick-meta":"","astra-migrate-meta-layouts":"default","ast-page-background-enabled":"default","ast-page-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"ast-content-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"footnotes":""},"categories":[25],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-158353","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-exams-certification"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.learnexams.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/158353","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.learnexams.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.learnexams.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.learnexams.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.learnexams.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=158353"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.learnexams.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/158353\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.learnexams.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=158353"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.learnexams.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=158353"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.learnexams.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=158353"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
