Answer:

See the table and the digure attached

Explanation:

For this case we can create the following table to express the information:

Category Frequency Rel. Frequency

_______________________________

A 60 0.5 (50%)

B 24 0.2 (20%)

C 36 0.3 (30%)

_______________________________

Total 120 1.0 (100%)

The values for the relative frequencies are calculated like this:


r_A= (60)/(120)=0.5


r_B= (24)/(120)=0.2


r_C= (36)/(120)=0.3

And as we can see on the figure attached we have the distributions required
