Relative frequency approximation is conducting experiments and counting the number of times the event occurs divided by the total number of events. The classical approach is determine the number of ways the event can occur divided by the total number of events.
1. subjective probability (intelligent guess) 2. relative frequency (in percent) 3. classical probability (in decimal)
Well, that's not much of a question. Perhaps you are asking: What is the frequency interpretation of probability? This is called the classical interpretation of probability. Given n independent and identical trials with m occurrences of of a particular outcome, then the probability of this outcome, is equal to the limit of m/n as n goes to infinity. If you are asking: How can probabilities be estimated given data, based on frequency approach? A table is constructed, with intervals, and the number of events in each interval is calculated. The number of events divided by the total number of data is the relative frequency and an estimate of probability for the particular interval.

It is not! It is one measure of probability.

when a probability experiment is repeated a large number of times, the relative frequency probability of an outcome will approach its theoretical probability.
There are three main methods for assigning probabilities Following the classical definition of probability Using relative frequencies Using subjective probability

The relative frequency of of an event is one possible measure of its probability.
It is not! It is one measure of probability.
The relative frequency is an estimate of the probability of an event.
To me, the theoretical probability is what is termed the classical probability. This says the probability is the number of ways an event can occur divided by the number of possible events. Forexample, flip a coin. The theoretical probability for heads is 1/2. However, flip a coin 10 times and you will probably not get 5/10 (or 1/2). Doing the actual experiment to determine the probability is called relative frequency approximation.
It is the empirical or experimental probability.
If an action is repeated n times and a certain event occurred b times then the ratio b/n is called the relative frequency.Where as theoretical probability is used to determine the number of ways that the event can occur if an experiment is repeated a large number of times.
