Recently a study of fans attending the new york mets baseball games was conducted and 500 fans were surveyed. in forming a frequency distribution of the number of miles fans traveled from home to the stadium, it was found that 247 fans traveled between 0 and 5 miles. based on this information what was the relative frequency for this class? select one: a. can't be determined without more information. b. 0.30 c. 0.494 d. 0.247

Relative frequency is the value assigned to each class in the proportion of the total data set that belongs in the class.

Relative frequency formula is :

--------------------(1)

So for class 0 to 5 miles we have 247 fans. So this class frequency is 247.

Total fans surveyed is 500

So plug these values in relative frequency formula given by (1)

relative frequency =

On simplifying we get

relative frequency = 0.494

So choice (c) 0.494 is the right answer
