Preferences Mountains Seaside Island Hiking 45 20 12 Swimming 12 53 40 Given the data in the table, what is the relative frequency that people who prefer island vacations also prefer swimming? Round the percentage to the nearest tenth

Answer 1

To find the relative frequency, we need to divide the number of people who prefer both island vacations and swimming by the total number of people who prefer island vacations.

Relative frequency = number of people who prefer both island vacations and swimming / total number of people who prefer island vacations

Relative frequency = 40 / 12 = 3.33

Converting this to a percentage, we get:
Relative frequency = 3.33 * 100 = 33.3%

Therefore, the relative frequency that people who prefer island vacations also prefer swimming is 33.3%.
