Difficulty calculating a distribution of values in an answer set.

18 Views Asked by At

I'm running a questionnaire where respondents answer questions which are scored 1-5.

The below shows how many people answered each a question (left column) with the associated answer (5,4,3,2,1).

Is there any method by which I can reduce a single questions distribution of values (such as question 0's 11,12,1,0,1 answers) as a single value? For example between 0 and 1?
