Solution

a. Number of students who have height more than or equal to 135 cm, but less than 150 cm = 14 + 18 + 10 = 42

b. The class interval 150 – 155 has the least number of students, i.e. 4.

c. We know, class size = Upper class limit – Lower class limit

Consider any class, say (125 – 130),

Then class size = 130 – 125 = 5

Hence, the class size is 5.

d. Number of students who have height less than 140 cm = 6 + 8 + 14 = 28
