Answer: Choice B) 0.27

=========================================================

Step-by-step explanation:

There are a lot of data values here, and it's possible to easily get lost in them. However, we're asked only about students with blond hair. So we only focus on the first row. Ignore everything else.

We see that there are 78 of these students total. Of this total, 21 have green eyes.

Therefore, the relative frequency of blonds with green eyes is 21/78 = 0.2692 which rounds to 0.27; so that's why the answer is choice B.
