Question

The weights (in kg) of 30 students of a class are:

39, 38, 36, 38, 40, 42, 43, 44, 33, 33, 31, 45, 46, 38, 37, 31, 30, 39, 41, 41, 46, 36, 35, 34, 39, 43, 32, 37, 29, 26.

Prepare a frequency distribution table using one class interval as (30 – 35), 35 not included.

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.
