Answer: See the explanation Below
Explanation:
The problem with the frequency table in the problem occurs within the "number of pets" column. Instead of recording the numbers 0-5 one time, Katie gave a row for every occurrence of each number. However, this defeats the purpose of having a tally column, which is much more efficient.
A better data table would look like the one I have attached to the problem.
For some additional help:
The tally column is filling in the number of times we see each number in the responses. For instance, 0 is given as an answer 3 times, so in the 0 tally box, you would write 3 tally marks.
The frequency table is found by dividing the number of that specific response by the total number of responses. For 0, we have 3 responses and 13 responses total. 3/13 = 0.23, which becomes the frequency. In the end, the totals for the frequency column should equal 1.
I hope this helps!
