Question
-Ensure complete frequency table and histogram using the values below.
-Convert the frequencies into percentages and record in the‘%’column. Using the formula
Percentage formula= count/total x 100
A sample is provided beside the values

Transcribed Image Text:Example 9 Constructing a frequency table for discrete numerical data, taking
a small number of values
The number of brothers and sisters (siblings) reported by each of the 30 students
in Year 11 are as follows:
2 3 4 03
2304
1 00 1 2 3
256 1 1
1 02
02 1 1 453
Construct a table for these data showing both frequency and percentage frequency.
Explanation
1 Find the maximum and the minimum
values in the data set. Here the
minimum is 0 and the maximum is 6.
2 Construct a table as shown, including
all the values between the minimum
and the maximum.
3 Count the number of 0s, 1s, 2s, etc.
in the data set. For example, there are
seven 1s. Record these values in the
number column.
4 Add the frequencies to find the total.
5 Convert the frequencies to percentages,
and record in the per cent (%) column.
6 Total the percentages and record.
