Question

Hector tosses a coin 80 times and gets 46 heads and 34 tails. What is the relative frequency of tails? 0 34% O 42.5% O 50% O 57.5%

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

The relative frequency of an outcome is the number of times you get this outcome divided by the number of times the experiment was repeated:

`\frac{\#\text{tails}}{\#\text{times Hector tosses the coin}}=(34)/(80)=0.425`

To find it as a percentage we just have to multiply by 100:

`0.425*100=42.5\text{ \%}`

Answer:

42.5%
