To find the relative frequency of picking a yellow counter, we follow this method:

1. **Total counters taken out**: 
   - Red: 6
   - Blue: 4
   - Yellow: 4
   - Green: 26

   The total number of counters is the sum of these values:

   \[
   \text{Total counters} = 6 + 4 + 4 + 26 = 40
   \]

2. **Relative frequency of picking a yellow counter**: 

   The relative frequency is calculated as:

   \[
   \text{Relative frequency of yellow} = \frac{\text{Number of yellow counters}}{\text{Total counters}} = \frac{4}{40} = 0.1
   \]

Thus, the relative frequency of picking a yellow counter is **0.1** or **10%**.

Here are five related questions:
1. How do you calculate relative frequency for any event?
2. What is the difference between relative frequency and probability?
3. How can relative frequency be useful in predicting outcomes?
4. If Ibrahim took out 80 counters, how would this affect the relative frequency of yellow counters?
5. How does the concept of relative frequency apply to real-world statistics?

**Tip**: Relative frequency is a good estimate for probability when the sample size is large enough.

Ibrahim has some counters in a bag and takes out 40. He records the number of counters that are red, blue, yellow, or green: - 6 Red - 4 Blue - 4 Yellow - 26 Green. Work out the relative frequency of picking a yellow counter.

Learn how to calculate the relative frequency of picking a yellow counter from a bag of 40 counters, where 6 are red, 4 are blue, 4 are yellow, and 26 are green. Understand the concept of relative frequency and its application in basic probability.
