Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The relative frequency is calculated by dividing the frequency of the category by the total frequency. Here, total vehicles = 11 (Motorcycle) + 60 (Sedan) + 80 (SUV) + 39 (Truck) = 190. Thus, the relative frequency of motorcycles = 11 / 190 = 0.0579, which rounds to 0.058.
