Class Interval Frequency
10 – 20 5
20 – 30 10
30 – 40 4
40 – 50 15
50 – 60 12

  2. What is the upper limit of the last class interval?
  3. What is the frequency of the third class?
  4. Which interval has a frequency of 10?

Solution

  1. The lower limit of second class interval (20 – 30) is 20.
  2. The upper limit of the last class interval (50 – 60) is 60.
  3. The frequency of the third class (30 – 40) is 4.
  4. The interval (20 – 30) has a frequency of 10.
  5. The interval (30 – 40) has the lowest frequency, i.e. 4.
  6. We know that, Class size = Upper class limit – Lower class limit
    Consider first class, i.e. 10 – 20, then class size = 20 – 10 = 10
