Relative Frequency Calculator

Turn a list of counts into a full frequency table. Paste one count per line, or separated by commas, and the tool computes each value as a raw frequency, a relative frequency shown as a percent of the total, and a running cumulative frequency. Relative frequency is simply each count divided by the sum of all counts, which lets you compare categories fairly even when the totals differ from study to study. The cumulative column adds each relative frequency to the ones before it, reaching 100 percent at the last row, which is handy for reading off medians and percentiles from grouped data. This is the table that sits behind histograms and pie charts. The tool also reports the grand total so you can confirm your inputs. Everything is computed locally in your browser, so your counts are never uploaded anywhere.

How to use Relative Frequency Calculator

  2. Submit to build the table.
