Question

Look at the histogram below and answer the questions that follow.

  1. How many students have height more than or equal to 135 cm but less than 150 cm?
  2. Which class interval has the least number of students?
  3. What is the class size?
  4. How many students have height less than 140 cm?
Sum

Solution

a. Number of students who have height more than or equal to 135 cm, but less than 150 cm = 14 + 18 + 10 = 42

b. The class interval 150 – 155 has the least number of students, i.e. 4.

c. We know, class size = Upper class limit – Lower class limit

Consider any class, say (125 – 130),

Then class size = 130 – 125 = 5

Hence, the class size is 5.

d. Number of students who have height less than 140 cm = 6 + 8 + 14 = 28
