To compute relative frequency from a frequency distribution, follow these steps:

  1. Identify the Frequency: Determine the frequency count (f) for the specific category or interval you are interested in.
  2. Calculate Total Frequency: Find the total frequency (N), which is the sum of all frequencies in the distribution.
  3. Apply the Formula: Use the formula for relative frequency:Relative Frequency=fNRelative Frequency=Nf​where ff is the frequency of the specific category and NN is the total frequency.
  4. Convert to Percentage (if needed): To express relative frequency as a percentage, multiply the result by 100:Relative Frequency Percentage=(fN)×100Relative Frequency Percentage=(Nf​)×100

For example, if a survey indicates that 15 respondents chose option A out of a total of 60 respondents, the relative frequency for option A would be calculated as follows: Relative Frequency=1560=0.25Relative Frequency=6015​=0.25 

To express this as a percentage: Relative Frequency Percentage=0.25×100=25%Relative Frequency Percentage=0.25×100=25% This method allows you to understand how often each category occurs relative to the total dataset, providing insights into patterns and distributions within your survey data.
