Answer:

54.64% of the applicants were accepted, 17.18% were waitlisted and 28.17% were turned away for lack of space.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the relative frequency of each decision made, we just need to divide the number of applicants that made a certain decision by the total number of applicants:

Applicants accepted: 900 / 1647 = 0.5464 = 54.64%

Applicants waitlisted: 283 / 1647 = 0.1718 = 17.18%

Applicants turned away for lack of space: 464 / 1647 = 0.2817 = 28.17%

54.64% of the applicants were accepted, 17.18% were waitlisted and 28.17% were turned away for lack of space.
