The following histogram shows the frequency distribution of teaching experiences of 30 teachers in various schools:

Solution
- In the histogram, we see that the class width is 5.
- By the histogram, it is clear that two teachers have the maximum teaching experience, i.e. 15 – 20 years, and five teachers have the least teaching experience, i.e. 0 – 5 years.
- The number of teachers having experience from 10 to 20 years is 7 + 2, i.e. 9.
