Histogram

  • A histogram is an approximate representation of the distribution of numerical data
  • Histogram is a diagram consisting of rectangles whose area is proportional to the frequency of a variable and whose width is equal to the class interval.

How to solve this problem?

The steps are as follow:

  • Give class interval; Hours of reading

0-4;20

5-9;24  32th median

10-14;10

15-19;4

20-24;2

25-29;3    ∑ = 63 i.e. odd

M = 1/2 (63+1) = 32th observation

So the median number of hours students in the class read last week is between 5 and 9
