a. Construct a grouped frequency distributionwith 6classes.          Â
Step 1. FindRange
Step 2. Given thenumber of classes, the width of each class is
Step 3. Create classboundaries
Step 4. Find thenumerical frequencies
b. Use Excel toconstruct a Histogram. (Tools à Data Analysis à Histogram à for the input range, select the given values, for thebin range select the classes upper boundaries values à check ChartOutput)
Note: If you don’t have thecapability of using excel for the histogram, draw one by hand.

Who is in the lowest quartile? Explain | Q1 = 1 Quartile 1 is the median of the lower half of the data. |
Who is in the uppermost quartile? | Q3 = 5 Q3 is the median of the upper half of the data. |
Interquartile Range | Interquartile range = q3 – q1 = 5 – 1 = |
Range | Range = highest value – lowest value = 9 |
Standard Deviation | 2.49 |
Variance | |
