In order to deduce any information from the given data, we will arrange the given data in a table, using tally marks.We use the repetitions to construct a tally table as shown below.The number 1 is represented as I. The number 2 is represented as II and so on. But number 5 is represented as 
Table with tally marks from the given information is shown below
The number of students who obtained marks more than or equal to 5 = 4 +1 +2+6+2+2 = 17.
