As regards the effectiveness of the cigarette filters, we can say that Yes, because the relative frequency of the higher tar classes is greater for nonfiltered cigarettes.
There are 25 filtered and 25 nonfiltered cigarettes.
Tar (mg) Relative Frequency (nonfiltered) Relative Frequency(filtered)
6 - 11 0/ 25 = 0% 1 / 25 = 4%
12 - 17 0/ 25 = 0% 1 / 25 = 4%
18 - 23 2/ 25 = 8% 5 / 25 = 20%
24 - 29 1/ 25 = 4% 18 / 25 = 72%
30 - 35 13/ 25 = 52% 0 / 25 = 0%
36 - 41 6/ 25 = 24% 0 / 25 = 0%
42 - 47 3 / 25 = 12% 0 / 25 = 0%
Total 25 / 25 = 100% 25 / 25 = 100%
We can therefore see that cigarette filters are effective because they reduced the amount of higher tar classes as opposed to nonfiltered cigarettes.
