Questions: A chemical technician measured the temperatures (in °C) of 13 different solutions. The temperatures are shown below.
Complete the grouped relative frequency distribution for the data. (Note that we are using a class width of 4.)
Write each relative frequency as a decimal rounded to the nearest hundredth, not as a percentage.

Solution
Solution Steps
To complete the grouped relative frequency distribution, we need to count how many temperatures fall into each specified range (class). Then, we calculate the relative frequency by dividing the count for each class by the total number of temperatures. Finally, we round the relative frequencies to the nearest hundredth.
Step 1: Define Class Intervals
The class intervals are defined as follows:
\(93 \leq T < 97\)
\(97 \leq T < 101\)
\(101 \leq T < 105\)
\(105 \leq T < 109\)
\(109 \leq T < 113\)
Step 2: Count Temperatures in Each Interval
Count the number of temperatures in each class interval:
