______

1 answer

To find the relative frequency of Hazel's T-shirts, we first need to determine the total number of clothing items she has, which is the sum of her T-shirts and short-sleeve blouses.

Hazel has:

  • 15 T-shirts
  • 10 short-sleeve blouses

Total number of items = 15 + 10 = 25

Now, we calculate the relative frequency of her T-shirts by dividing the number of T-shirts by the total number of items:

\[ \text{Relative frequency of T-shirts} = \frac{\text{Number of T-shirts}}{\text{Total number of items}} = \frac{15}{25} \]

Calculating this gives:

\[ \frac{15}{25} = 0.6 \]

Thus, the relative frequency of her T-shirts in decimal form is:

0.6
