Solution

The given data set is a grouped frequency distribution of the number of persons visiting a shopping mall at different hours of the day.

The first data point shows that 20 persons visit the mall between 0700 to 0900 hours.

0700 to 0900 hours is the combination of 0700 to 0800 hours and 0800 to 0900 hours, i.e., two hours.

Hence, each data point is data of two hours clubbed together.
