Question 1127235: Employees were asked how many times per week they exercised. The frequency table shows the results of the survey:

Number of times exercised per week: 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8
Frequency: 5 10 2 9 33 12 15 3 1

The given table is

X = number of times exercised per week
F = frequency

Add up the frequencies to get:
5+10+2+9+33+12+15+3+1 = 90

Now divide each frequency value by the total. Round each result to 2 decimal places
5/90 = 0.05556 = 0.06
10/90 = 0.11111 = 0.11
2/90 = 0.02222 = 0.02
9/90 = 0.10
33/90 = 0.36667 = 0.37
12/90 = 0.13333 = 0.13
15/90 = 0.16667 = 0.17
3/90 = 0.03333 = 0.03
1/90 = 0.01111 = 0.01

The final answer is this table shown below

A table is one way to represent a probability distribution.
