Definition: Ogive (Cumulative Frequency Curve)
An ogive is a freehand curve obtained by plotting upper class limits on the x-axis and their corresponding cumulative frequencies on the y-axis.
Key Points: Ogive (Cumulative Frequency Curve)
-
Ogive is also called a cumulative frequency curve.
-
The ogive is also called the less-than ogive.
-
It is always a rising curve.
-
It starts at the lower limit of the first class with a cumulative frequency of 0.
-
It ends at the upper limit of the last class.
-
Ogive is drawn only after converting inclusive classes into an exclusive form.

- the lower quartile wage of workers.
- the numbers of workers who earn more than Rs. 625 daily.
