Question 1.
For class interval 20 – 25 write the lower class limit and the upper class limit.
Answer:
Lower class limit = 20
Upper class limit = 25
Question 2.
Find the class-mark of the class 35-40.
Solution:
Class-mark
∴ Class-mark of the class 35 – 40 is 37.5
Question 3.
If class-mark is 10 and class width is 6, then find the class.
Solution:
Let the upper class limit be x and the lower class limit be y.
Class mark = 10 …[Given]
Class-mark
∴ x + y = 20 …(i)
Class width = 6 … [Given]
Class width = Upper class limit – Lower class limit
∴ x – y = 6 …(ii)
Adding equations (i) and (ii),
x + y = 20
x – y = 6
2x = 26
∴ x = 13
Substituting x = 13 in equation (i),
13 + y = 20
∴ y = 20 – 13
∴ y = 7
∴ The required class is 7 – 13.
Question 4.
Complete the following table.
Solution:
Let frequency of the class 14 – 15 be x then, from table,
5 + 14 + x + 4 = 35
∴ 23 + x = 35
∴ x = 35 – 23
∴ x = 12
Question 5.
In a ‘tree plantation’ project of a certain school there are 45 students of ‘Harit Sena.’ The record of trees planted by each student is given below:
3, 5, 7, 6, 4, 3, 5, 4, 3, 5, 4, 7, 5, 3, 6, 6, 5, 3, 4, 5, 7, 3, 5, 6, 4, 4, 3, 5, 6, 6, 4, 3, 5 ,7, 3, 4, 5, 7, 6, 4, 3, 5, 4, 4, 7.
Prepare a frequency distribution table of the data.
Solution:
Question 6.

From this information prepare an ungrouped frequency distribution table of digits appearing after the decimal point.
Solution:
Question 7.
In the tables given below, class-mark and frequencies is given. Construct the frequency tables taking inclusive and exclusive classes.
i.
ii.
Solution:
i. Let the Lower class limit and upper class limit of the class mark 5 be x and y respectively.
∴x + y = 10
Here, class width = 15 – 5 = 10
But, Class width = Upper class limit – Lower class limit
∴ y – x = 10
∴ -x + y = 10 …(ii)
Adding equations (i) and (ii),
x+ y = 10
-x + y = 10
∴ 2y = 20
∴ y = 10
Substituting y = 10 in equation (i),
∴ x + 10 = 10
∴ x = 0
∴ class with class-mark 5 is 0 – 10
Similarly, we can find the remaining classes.
∴ frequency table taking inclusive and exclusive classes.
ii. Let the lower class limit and upper class limit of the class mark 22 be x andy respectively.
∴ x + y = 44 …(i)
Here, class width = 24 – 22 = 2
But, Class width = Upper class limit – Lower class limit
∴ y – x = 2
∴ -x + y = 2 …. (ii)
Adding equations (i) and (ii),
x + y = 44
– x + y= 2
2y = 46
∴ y = 23
Substituting y = 23 in equation (i),
∴ x + 23 = 44
∴ x = 21
∴ class with class-mark 22 is 21 – 23
Similarly, we can find the remaining classes
∴ frequency table taking inclusive and exclusive classes.
