Is relative frequency like a percent?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (sleepyjess):

and

OpenStudy (sleepyjess):

Oh I see what they want, they want among the people that don't live in their hometown not everyone. So you will divide 4/10.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I did 10 divide by 4 and got 2.5

OpenStudy (sleepyjess):

No, 4/10

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so 0.4

OpenStudy (sleepyjess):

Now .4*100

OpenStudy (sleepyjess):

To get the percentage

OpenStudy (anonymous):

400

OpenStudy (sleepyjess):

400 is 4*100, you need .4*100

OpenStudy (anonymous):
