Question
Write the answers as a fraction in reduced form.
Do you know what regifting is? It is loosely defined as "giving someone a gift that was originally given to you without telling the recipient the origin of the gift." Now that you know, how often do you engage in regifting? In a survey of 5555 persons, the answers to that question were as follows.
Response to the question: How often do you engage in regifting?
Very often → 146 votes
Every now and then → 819 votes
Not very often → 1756 votes
Never → 2808 votes
I'm not sure → 26 votes
Current number of voters: 5555
