Desired percentage is:
`=(17+9+5)/50 xx 100`
= 62%
(2) The maximum range of height is 164-165 cm. The number of students belonging to this group is 5.
(3) The number of students whose heights are less than 150 cm is 7 + 12 = 19. Hence, the total cost is 19 × 55= Rs 1045/-
(4) The minimum range of height is 140-144 cm. The number of students belonging to this group is 7.
(5) (a) The number of students whose heights are in the range 155-159 cm is 9. Hence, the statement is true.
(b) The maximum possible height (in cm) of a student in the class can be 164 cm. Hence, the statement is false.
(c) The number of students whose heights are in the range 145-154 cm is 12 +17 = 29 . Hence, the statement is true.
(d) The minimum range of heights of students in the class is 140-144 cm. Hence, the statement is true.
(e) The number of students having heights less than 150 cm is 7 +12+ 19 . Hence, the statement is false.
(f) The number of students having heights more than 154 cm is
9+5=14. Hence, the statement is true.
