Draw a histogram of the following distribution :
Heights (in cm) Number of Students
150 - 153 7
153 - 156 8
156 - 159 14
159 - 162 10
162 - 165 6
165 - 168 5

Solution:

Given, the table represents the height and the number of students.

We have to draw a histogram for the given data.

The given frequency distribution is in the exclusive form.

We can represent the class intervals of heights along the horizontal axis.

The corresponding frequencies of the number of students are represented along the vertical axis.

Given, the interval start with 150 - 153

This implies that there is a break near the origin.

Using the given data, a histogram is given below,
