Solution

Class interval Tally marks Frequency
25 – 30 `bb|bb|` 2
30 – 35 `\cancel(bb|bb|bb|bb|) bb|bb|` 7
35 – 40 `\cancel(bb|bb|bb|bb|) \cancel(bb|bb|bb|bb|) bb|` 11
40 – 45 `\cancel(bb|bb|bb|bb|) bb|bb|` 7
45 – 50 `bb|bb|bb|` 3
Total   30
  1. The class interval 25 – 30 has the least frequency, i.e. 2.
  2. The class interval 35 – 40 has the maximum frequency, i.e. 11.
