Answer: 20% = 0.2

Step-by-step explanation:

-Add all the ball for a total frequency (15 balls)

-Find the frequency of each ball

5/15 = 0.33

3/15 = 0.2

6/15 = 0.4

1/15 = 0.67

-multiply by 100 to get a percentage.

Dana Brooks · Answer 2

1/5 or 1; 5, or. 2, or 20%

Step-by-step explanation:

First, lets add 5, 3,6 and 1 together.

5+3+6+1=15

3 of these are tennis balls. This, as a ratio, would be 3/15. Simpified, tis would be 1/5.
