1. **State the problem:** We are given frequencies of responses about seat belt usage and need to find the probabilities for each response category by dividing each frequency by the total number of responses.
2. **Calculate total frequency:**
$$146 + 312 + 576 + 1369 + 2499 = 4902$$
3. **Calculate probabilities:**
- Never: $$\frac{146}{4902} \approx 0.030$$
- Rarely: $$\frac{312}{4902} \approx 0.064$$
- Sometimes: $$\frac{576}{4902} \approx 0.118$$
- Most of the time: $$\frac{1369}{4902} \approx 0.279$$
- Always: $$\frac{2499}{4902} \approx 0.510$$
4. **Answer part (b):**
An event is considered unusual if its probability is less than 0.05.
Since $$P(\text{Never}) = 0.030 < 0.05$$, it is unusual.
Therefore, the correct choice is:
**B. Yes, because P(never) < 0.05.**
