[AI-generated answer — Bot GPT 3.5]

To find the relative frequency of 7th graders who prefer dogs, we first need to add up the total number of 7th graders, which is 36 + 8 + 2 = 46.

Next, we divide the number of 7th graders who prefer dogs (8) by the total number of 7th graders (46) and multiply by 100 to find the percentage:
(8/46) * 100 = 17.4%

Therefore, the relative frequency of students who prefer dogs who are 7th graders is 17.4%.
