Number of trials 28 30 22


_______%

Verified Answer :

Answer:

The relative frequency of selecting a green marble is 37.5%.

Step-by-step explanation:

The table after total 80 trials is given by,

Outcome                    Number of trials

Red                                      28

Green                                  30

Blue                                     22

Since, 'Relative frequency' is the ratio of the number of times an event is occurring to the total number of events.

Thus, we have,

Relative frequency of selecting a green marble = \(\frac{30}{80}\) = =0.375 or 37.5%

Hence, the relative frequency of selecting a green marble is 37.5%.
