Question

Tally marks are used to find

• A. Class intervals.
• B. Range.
• C. Frequency.
• D. Upper limit.

Answer 1

The correct option is C

Frequency.

Explanation for the correct option

• Tally marks are used to count the number of something. It is generally represented by vertical straight lines.
• As the count increases by one, the number of vertical straight lines increases by one side by side up to four counts.
• After that, these four vertical lines are crossed with the help of another inclined straight line.

• The above-shown figure represents a set of tally marks.
• Thus one set of tally marks represents five counts.
• Therefore, the tally marks are used to find the frequency.

Hence, option(C) is the correct option.
