Answer
Explanation:
Step1: Recall joint - relative frequency formula
Joint relative frequency = $\frac{\text{Frequency of the cell}}{\text{Total frequency}}$
Step2: Identify relevant values
The frequency of those in Town 2 who take a summer vacation is 345, and the total frequency is 1402.
Step3: Calculate joint - relative frequency
Joint relative frequency = $\frac{345}{1402}\approx 0.246$
Step4: Convert to percentage
$0.246\times100 = 24.6%$. Rounding to the nearest percent gives 25%.
Answer:
25%
