Solution

To create a grouped frequency distribution table, we first need to define the class intervals and then tally the frequency of values that fall within each interval.

Step 1: Determine the range

  • Maximum value = 9420
  • Minimum value = 4900
  • Range = 9420 - 4900 = 4520

Step 2: Choose the number of classes

A common rule is to have around 6 to 10 classes. Let's select 7 classes for this example.

Step 3: Calculate the class width

Class width can be calculated by dividing the range by the number of classes. Class width=45207646\text{Class width} = \frac{4520}{7} \approx 646 To keep things simple, we'll round it to 650.

Step 4: Create class intervals

We start at 4900 (the minimum value) and add the class width (650) to get the next class. The intervals are:

  • 4900–5549
  • 5550–6199
  • 6200–6849
  • 6850–7499
  • 7500–8149
  • 8150–8799
  • 8800–9449

Step 5: Tally the frequencies

Now we count how many values fall into each interval.

Class IntervalFrequency
4900–55493
5550–61994
6200–68498
6850–74996
7500–81495
8150–87995
8800–94492
