उत्तर

Class Intervals Tally Marks Frequency
150 − 200 II 2
200 − 250 III 3
250 − 300 IIII I 6
300 − 350 IIII 5
350 − 400 IIII II 7
400 − 450 IIII 4
450 − 500 III 3
Total 30

Total percentage of students = 100%

∴ 50 students = 100% – (30% + 20% + 25% + 15%)

= 100% – 90%

50 students = 10%

10% of total students = 50

∴ `10/100` (Total students) = 50

Total students = `(50 xx 100)/10` = 500

Total students = 500.

Total number of students = 500

500 students were asked about their favourite colours.
