Question

Diane flipped a coin 600 times and it landed heads up 240 times. What is the relative frequency of the coin landing heads up based on the results of this experiment?

4%
6%
40%
60%

Answer 1

40%

Explanation:

Flips 600 times, that's the total flips. ###/600

Heads flipped 240 times, and that's what you're looking for. 240/600

240/600 simplified is 2/5 (0.4)

You're looking for a frequency/percentage so you're looking at the decimal

Decimal number = Percentage

So it'll be 40%
