Question
Given below is the frequency distribution of the heights of 50 students of a class: Class Interval140−145145−150150−155155−160160−165Frequency81218105
Draw a histogram representing the above data.

Solution
The class limits are represented along the x-axis on a suitable scale and the frequencies are represented along the y-axis on a suitable scale.
Taking class intervals as bases and the corresponding frequencies as heights, the rectangles can be constructed to obtain the histogram of the given frequency distribution as shown in the figure below:
