1. **State the problem:** We are given a table of stress ratings from 0 to 10 and the number of students (frequency) who chose each rating. We need to find which stress rating corresponds to the least number of students. 2. **Understand the data:** The frequencies for each stress rating are: - 0: 6 students - 1: 3 students - 2: 5 students - 3: 19 students - 4: 14 students - 5: 18 students - 6: 20 students - 7: 26 students - 8: 34 students - 9: 12 students - 10: 17 students 3. **Find the minimum frequency:** We look for the smallest frequency value among these numbers. 4. **Compare frequencies:** The smallest frequency is 3, which corresponds to the stress rating of 1. 5. **Answer:** The stress rating that describes the least number of students is **1**. This means only 3 students reported a stress level of 1, which is the lowest count among all ratings.
