From the information given in the table you know that 107 people like chocolate and that 12 teens like chocolate. Then, the relative frequency for which the exercise asks will be:


\begin{gathered} \text{relative frequency }=\frac{\text{teens who like chocolate}}{\text{people who like chocolate}} \\ \text{relative frequency }=(12)/(107) \\ \text{relative frequency }=0.11 \end{gathered}

Therefore, the relative frequency of teens who like chocolate is 0.11.
