Relative frequency distribution | Statistics

A relative frequency distribution is a frequency distribution in which the proportions of each class also are indicated.

A relative frequency distribution is obtained by converting the class frequencies to proportions by dividing the class frequency by the total number of observations. For example, if a class has a class frequency of 10 and the total number of observations is 100, the relative frequency for the class is 10 %.

A relative frequency distribution makes a frequency distribution into a probability distribution.
