Solution
Steps :
1. On the x-axis , take 1 cm as 5 units and plot class interval.
2. On the y-axis , take 1 cm as 5 units and plot frequency.
3. Plot the points with coordinates having abscissae as actual limits and ordinates as the cumulative frequencies . In this case (19,28),(29,51),(39,66),(49,86),(59,100).
4. Join the points plotted by a smooth curve .
| less than | Cumulative Frequency |
| 19 | 28 |
| 29 | 51 |
| 39 | 66 |
| 49 | 86 |
| 59 | 100 |

Use a graph paper to draw an ogive for the above distribution. (Use a scale of 2 cm = Rs. 50 on x-axis and 2 cm = 10 workers on y-axis). Use your ogive to estimate:
- the median wage of the workers.
- the lower quartile wage of workers.
- the numbers of workers who earn more than Rs. 625 daily.

Find the width of class 35 - 45.
The following is the frequency distribution with unknown frequencies :
| Class | 60-70 | 70-80 | 80-90 | 90-100 | Total |
| frequency | `"a"/2` | `(3"a")/2` | 2a | a | 50 |
