For a school function, students could choose to wear a blue or white uniform shirt and black or tan uniform pants. The students' choices were recorded in the table below.

Question

What was the relative frequency that a student chose to wear both a white shirt and tan pants to the school function?
20%
25%
35%
65%

Answer 1

To determine the relative frequency that a student chose to wear both a white shirt and tan pants, we need to compute the proportion of students who made this choice relative to the total number of students.

Let's denote:

• the number of students wearing a white shirt and tan pants as \( N_{white, tan} \).
• the total number of students as \( N_{total} \).

The relative frequency is then calculated using the formula:

\[ \text{Relative Frequency} = \frac{N_{white, tan}}{N_{total}} \]

However, since no specific numbers are provided in your question regarding how many students chose each option, I'm unable to calculate the exact relative frequency.

If you have that data available (i.e., the counts of students for each combination of shirt and pants), please provide it so we can work out the relative frequency together. Alternatively, if you have a specific answer among the options provided, let me know how they might correlate with the data, and I can assist you from there!
