Solution

The correct option is C p = 5, q = 4, r = 5, s = 6
The data provided is:

162, 155, 166, 173, 170, 161, 166, 151, 167, 176, 178, 175, 163, 165, 170, 152, 172, 166, 176, 159, 157, 158, 148, 174, 152, 162, 171, 178, 157, 145, 148.

In the given frequency table the classes are continuous. So, the values that belongs to a class should be greater than or equal to the lower class but should be less than the upper class.
Example: The value 165 will belong to the class 165-170 but not in 160-165.

Counting the number of values present in the range of 155 -160 in the given data, we obtain p = 5.

Similarily, q=4
r=5 s=6
