What sort of information can you get from conditional frequencies that you couldn't get by just looking at the relative frequencies?

Answer:

Conditional frequencies offer more specific information to analyse certain data set.

Explanation:

A conditional frequency is a type of relative frequency which involves a condition to be defined.

For example, the conditional frequency of having a house given that the person is female. Notice that this example shows the condition "being female", so the conditional frequency would be all females who own a house.

On the other hand, the relative frequency is just a ratio between the frequency of the data and the total number of data. It's doesn't includes a condition to be defined, that's the difference.

Therefore, conditional frequencies offer more specific information to analyse certain data set.
