Relative Frequency Histogram

What is a Relative Frequency Histogram?

Relative frequency histogram is a type of bar graph that shows the proportion or percentage of data points that fall into different ranges or bins. Instead of showing how many times something happens, it shows how often it happens compared to the total number of data points.

How is Relative Frequency Histogram different from a Regular Histogram?

• Regular histogram shows the actual number of times something happens in each bin.
• Relative frequency histogram shows the proportion or percentage of the total that each bin represents. It’s like looking at how big each part is compared to the whole.

Why do we use Relative Frequency Histograms?

We use relative frequency histograms to easily compare different data sets, even if they have different total numbers of data points. It helps us understand the distribution of data as percentages, which can be more useful in some cases.

How to Make a Relative Frequency Histogram?

To make relative frequency histogram follow the steps added in the article above.

A histogram in mathematics is a graphical representation of data using a bar graph. The height of each bar graph points to the frequency of the data point in a particular range, which makes it easy to visualize the data. They are used in a wide number of fields including statistics, data analysis etc.

In this article, we’ll study about relative frequency histograms.
