To determine the modal class from the given distribution, we need to identify the restaurant with the highest frequency of preference among the students surveyed. The modal class is essentially the category that occurs most frequently.
Let's examine the provided frequencies for each restaurant:
- McDonald's: 4
- Taco Bell: 12
- Pizza Hut: 1
- Subway: 18
- Kentucky Fried Chicken: 20
From these frequencies, we can see that:
- McDonald's has 4 votes.
- Taco Bell has 12 votes.
- Pizza Hut has 1 vote.
- Subway has 18 votes.
- Kentucky Fried Chicken has the highest number of votes, which is 20.
Therefore, the restaurant with the highest frequency is Kentucky Fried Chicken with 20 votes. This makes Kentucky Fried Chicken the modal class in this distribution.
