Question

A group of people were asked how many people live in their household. What percent of these people have exactly 2 people in their household?

Answer 1

Answer:

16%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$\begin{array}{cccccc}{Size & {1} & {2} & {3} & {4} & {5} \ \\ {f} & {3} & {4} & {6} & {7} & {5} \ \end{array}$

Required

The percentage of household with 2 people

First, calculate the total frequency

$Total = 3 + 4 +6+7+5$

$Total = 25$

The frequency of household with 2 people is:

$f(2) = 4$

So, the percentage is calculated as:

$\% =\frac{f(2)}{Total} * 100\%$

$\% =\frac{4}{25} * 100\%$

$\% =\frac{400}{25}\%$

$\% =16\%$
