Use the table to answer the question
Preferences, hiking swimming
Mountains 45, 12
Seaside 20, 53
Island 12, 40
Given the data in the table, what is the relative frequency that people who prefer island vacations also prefer swimming round of the percentage to the nearest 10th
To find the relative frequency that people who prefer island vacations also prefer swimming, we need to look at the intersection of the "Island" row and the "Swimming" column in the table.
Total number of people who prefer island vacations = 12 (Island row total)
Number of people who prefer island vacations and also prefer swimming = 40
Relative frequency = Number of people who prefer island vacations and also prefer swimming / Total number of people who prefer island vacations
Relative frequency = 40 / 12
Relative frequency = 3.33
Converting to percentage and rounding to the nearest 10th:
Relative frequency = 3.33 * 100 = 333.3%
Relative frequency rounded to the nearest 10th = 333.3%
Therefore, the relative frequency that people who prefer island vacations also prefer swimming is 333.3%, rounded to the nearest 10th.
