Detailed Solution & Explanation
The frequency of a variable or item in a given dataset refers to the number of times that specific item occurs. Cumulative frequency, on the other hand, is the running total of frequencies up to a certain point. Therefore, the frequency is the correct term. Although the source key indicated Option C, the correct definition refers to frequency, which corresponds to Option B. Hence, **Option B** is the correct answer.
