Solution
1) From the graph, it can be observed that the maximum number of students (i.e., 32) watched TV for 4 − 5 hours.
2) The students who watched TV for less than 4 hours are the students who watched TV for 1 − 2 hours or 2 − 3 hours or 3 − 4 hours.
Hence, total number of students = 4 + 8 + 22 = 34
3) The students who watched TV for more than 5 hours are the students who watched TV for 5 − 6 hours or 6 − 7 hours.
Hence, total number of students = 8 + 6 = 14
