Table 3.1 Final examination grades on Basic Statistics course 23 60 79 57 32 82 52 70 36 74 80 77 81 41 65 85 92 95 55 76 52 10 64 75 78 25 80 98 81 67 41 71 83 64 54 74 88 43 62 72 60 78 89 76 84 48 84 90 15 79 34 67 17 82 69 74 63 80 85 61 In this case, we need a step by step procedure in constructing a frequency distribution for table 3.1. The steps in grouping a large set of data into frequency distribution may be summarized as follows: 1. Decide on the number of class intervals required. (5-20) 2. Determine the range. 3. Divide the range by the number of classes to estimate the approximate width of the interval. 4. List the lower class limit of the bottom interval and then the lower class boundary to obtain the upper class boundary. Write down the upper class limit. 5. List all the limits and class boundaries by adding the class width to the limits and Foundaries on the previous interval. 6. Determine the class marks of each interval by averaging the class limits. 7. Tally the frequencies of each class. 8. Sum the frequency column and check against the total number of observations.
