We show how to calculate the relative percentage frequency for one range of values for $\\var{a[r]} \\le X \\lt \\var{a[r+1]}$ - you can then check the rest.
\nNote that there were $\\var{daysopen}$ days in the year when sales took place.
\nThere were $\\var{norm1[r]}$ days out of the $\\var{daysopen}$ when there were between $\\var{a[r]}$ and $\\var{a[r+1]}$ thousand pounds worth of sales (including $\\var{a[r]}$ thousand but not $\\var{a[r+1]}$ thousand) .
\nHence the relative frequency percentage for such sales is given by \\[100 \\times \\frac{\\var{norm1[r]}}{\\var{daysopen}}\\%=\\var{rel[r]}\\%\\] to one decimal place.
