Solution

The class limits are represented along the x-axis and the frequencies are represented along the y-axis on a suitable scale. Taking class intervals as bases and the corresponding frequencies as heights, the rectangles can be drawn to obtain the histogram of the given frequency distribution. The histogram is shown below:
