Question

A group of 120 students were surveyed about their interest in a new International Studies program. Interest was measured in terms of high, medium, or low. 30 students responded high interest; 50 students responded medium interest; 40 students responded low interest. What is the relative frequency of students with high interest? A. 30% B. 36.4% C. 25% D. Cannot be determined. Group of answer choices

Answer 1

Option C (25%) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Given:

Number of students,

= 120

Students responded high interest,

= 30

Students responded medium interest,

= 50

Students responded low interest,

= 40

Now,

The relative frequency will be:

=
`(30)/(120)`

=
`0.25`

or,

=
`25`%
