Solution
| Class Marks | Class Intervals | Frequency |
| 16 | 12 – 20 | 08 |
| 24 | 20 – 28 | 12 |
| 32 | 28 – 36 | 15 |
| 40 | 36 – 44 | 18 |
| 48 | 44 – 52 | 25 |
| 56 | 52 – 60 | 19 |
| 64 | 60 – 68 | 10 |
Steps of construction:
- Convert the class marks into class intervals.
- Taking suitable scales, mark class intervals on x-axis and frequency on y-axis.
- Construct rectangles with class intervals as bases and corresponding frequencies as heights.
