Construct a frequency table with equal class intervals from the following data on the daily wages (in Rs.) of 28 labourers workiing in a factory, taking one of the class intervals as 210-230 (230 not included) .
220, 268, 258, 242, 210, 268, 272, 242, 311, 290, 300, 320, 319, 302,318, 306, 292, 254, 278, 210, 240, 280, 316, 306, 215, 256, 236.
Sol:
Minimum observation is 210 and maximum observation = 320
So the range is (320-210) =110
The classes of equal size covering the given data are:
(210-230), (230-250), (250-270), (270-290), (290-310), (310-330)
Thus the frequency distribution may be given as:
