This document discusses frequency and provides two examples. Frequency refers to how often something occurs. The first example shows that Tarique played cricket 2 times on Saturday, 1 time on Thursday, and 3 times total for the week. The second example lists scores from a college football team's recent games and puts them in a frequency distribution table showing how many times each score occurred. The table reveals that getting 2 goals was the most frequent and 5 goals only occurred once.
