A card was selected at random from a standard deck of cards. The suit of the card was recorded, and then the card was put back in the deck. The table shows the results after 40 trials.

What is the relative frequency of selecting a club?


Outcome Club Diamond Heart Spade
Number of trials 8 12 11 9


A.
17%

B.
20%

C.
25%

D.
30%


Sagot :

8 trials in which club was the result
40 trials total
Find 8/40 as a percent.
8/40 = 1/5 = 0.2 = 20%

Answer: This asks for the relative frequency of selecting a club, not a diamond, it's obvious that the person either copied an answer or didn't read the question properly. I took the test, calculated, and the answer is in fact 20%.
