When are relative frequency distributions generally more useful than frequency distributions?

Answer :

Relative frequency distributions are generally more useful than frequency distributions when comparing data sets of the same size.

The frequency (or absolute frequency) of an event in statistics is the number of times the event occurred in an experiment or research. Histograms are frequently used to graphically show these frequencies.

The absolute frequency of an occurrence normalized by the total number of events is referred to as its relative frequency (or empirical probability). A frequency distribution can be created by plotting the values of all events.

A histogram is a graphical representation of tabulated frequencies that is displayed as consecutive rectangles erected at discrete intervals (bins) with an area equal to the frequency of the observations in the interval.

The frequency density of the interval, i.e. the frequency divided by the width of the interval, is also equal to the height of a rectangle.
