Two thousand one hundred and forty frequent business travelers are asked which midwestern city they prefer: Indianapolis, Saint Louis, Chicago, or Milwaukee. 180 liked Indianapolis best, 460 liked Saint Louis, 1240 liked Chicago, and the remainder preferred Milwaukee. Develop a frequency table and a relative frequency table to summarize this information. (Round relative frequency to 3 decimal places.)

Explanation / Answer

We need to subtract 2140 - 180 - 460- 1240 = 260 to get those in favor of Milwaukee.

We just need to divide the frequencies by 2140 to get the relative frequencies.

Hence, consider the table:

[ANSWER]

  City Frequency Relative Frequency   Indianapolis 180 0.084   St. Louis 460 0.215   Chicago 1240 0.579   Milwaukee 260 0.121
