To find the joint relative frequency of being male and attending a drama movie, you are essentially looking for the proportion of the total number of attendees who are males watching a drama movie.
Given:
- The number of males attending a drama movie: 124
- The total number of attendees: 479
The joint relative frequency is calculated by dividing the number of males attending the drama movie by the total number of attendees. This gives you the proportion of the entire audience that consists of males watching the drama movie.
Performing this calculation:
[tex]\[ \text{Joint Relative Frequency} = \frac{\text{Number of males attending a drama movie}}{\text{Total number of attendees}} \][/tex]
[tex]\[ \text{Joint Relative Frequency} = \frac{124}{479} \][/tex]
This results in approximately 0.2588726513569937.
Hence, the correct option is:
D. Divide 124 by 479.
