The approximate relative frequency is "the number of times that the event occurs during experimental trials, divided by the total number of trials conducted."
So we need to identify the number of times the event occured, the amount of times children chose sweet snacks, and the total number of trials conducted. So since the question wants the approximate relative frequency by column, we use the number 134 for the total number, and 77 for the number of times the event occurred. We then divide 77 by 134, which looks like this: 77/134. In decimal form, this equals 0.5746. It can't be simplified anymore in fraction form, so 77/135 would be another way to answer.
To find the solution, simply take 3 and divide it by 12. 3/12 as a fraction would be simplified down to 1/4 or 0.25. Therefore, each student would receive one quarter of a pizza.
