Solution

Since mid values are given, the given distributors is discontinuous.

Lower boundary lower limit – `1/2` (gap between the adjacent class interval)

= `15 - 1/2` (10) = 10

Upper boundary = Upper limit + `1/2` (gap between the adjacent class interval)

= `15 + 1/2` (10) = 20

The continuous distribution will he as folIows.

Class interval 10 − 20 20 − 30 30 − 40 40 − 50 50 − 60 60 − 70 70 −  80 
Frequency 12 24 30 18 26 10 8
