Answer 1

To calculate the frequency of red flowers in the garden, you can use the formula:

\[ \text{Frequency} = \frac{\text{Number of red flowers}}{\text{Total number of flowers}} \]

In this case:

• Number of red flowers = 30
• Total number of flowers = 40

So the calculation would be:

\[ \text{Frequency} = \frac{30}{40} = 0.75 \]

Thus, the frequency of red flowers is 0.75.
