Question
Three coins were tossed 30 times simultaneously. Each time the number of heads occurring was noted down as follows:-
| 0 | 1 | 2 | 2 | 1 | 2 | 3 | 1 | 3 | 0 |
| 1 | 3 | 1 | 1 | 2 | 2 | 0 | 1 | 2 | 1 |
| 3 | 0 | 0 | 1 | 1 | 2 | 3 | 2 | 2 | 0 |
Prepare a frequency distribution table for the data given above.
Solution
By observing the data given above, the required frequency distribution table can be constructed as follows.
| Number of heads | Number of times (frequency) |
| 0 | 6 |
| 1 | 10 |
| 2 | 9 |
| 3 | 5 |
| Total | 30 |
