Question

The weekly wages (in rupees) of 28 workers of a factory are given below:
668, 610, 642, 658, 668, 620, 719, 720, 700, 690, 710, 642, 672, 654, 692, 706, 718, 702, 704, 678, 615, 640, 680, 716, 705, 615, 636, 656.
Construct a frequency table with equal class intervals, taking the first of the class intervals as 610−630, where 630 is not included.

Answer 1

Arranging the given observations in ascending order, we get:
610, 615, 615, 620, 636, 640, 642, 642, 654, 656, 658, 668, 668, 672, 678, 680, 690, 692, 700, 702, 704, 705, 706, 710, 716, 718, 719, 720

Thus, the frequency distribution may be represented as shown below:

Weekly wages (in Rupees)	Tally marks	Frequency
610-630	||||	4
630-650	||||	4
650-670	||||	5
670-690	|||	3
690-710	|||| ||	7
710-730	||||	5
	Total	28
