Question

To draw the "less then" type ogive _________ is represented on the $x-$axis

• A. upper limit of the classes
• B. lower limit of the classes
• C. cumulative frequency
• D. mid value of class

Answer 1

The correct option is A upper limit of the classes

To draw the "less-than" type ogive upper limits of the classes is represented on the $x-$axis.

Reason: Plot the points with the upper limits of the class as abscissae and the corresponding less than cumulative frequencies as ordinates. The points are joined by free hand smooth curve to give less than cumulative frequency curve or the less than Ogive. It is a rising curve.

Hence, $\text{A}$ is the correct option.
