Question 85 Marks
Use the table given below to find:
$(a) $The actual class limits of the fourth class.$(b)$ The class boundaries of the sixth class.$(c)$ The class mark of the third class.$(d)$ The upper and lower limits of the fifth class.$(e)$ The size of the third class.
Class Interval Frequency

$35 - 39$ $10$
$40 - 44$ $12$
$45 - 49$ $13$
$50 - 54$ $8$
$55 - 59$ $4$
Answer
$(a)$ The actual class limit of the fourth class will be $44.5 - 49.5.$
$(b)$ The class boundaries of the sixth class will be $54.5 - 59.5$
$(c)$ The class mark of the third class will be the average of the lower bound and the upper bound of the interval. Therefore the class mark will be: $\frac{40+44}{2}=42$
$(d)$ The upper and lower limit of the fifth class is $54$ and $50$ respectively.
$(e)$ The size of the third class will be $44 - 40 + 1 = 5.$

Question 95 Marks
Find the actual lower and upper-class limits and also the class marks of the classes:$1.1 - 2.0, 2.1 -3.0$ and $3.1 - 4.0.$
Answer
In the case of frequency $1.1 - 2.0$ the lower-class limit is $1.05,$ upper$-$class limit is $2.05$ and classmark.
is $1.05 - 2.05$
$\frac{1.05+2.05}{2}$
$=\frac{3.10}{2} $
$ =1.55$
In the case of frequency $2.1 - 3.0$ the lower$-$class limit is $2.05,$ upper$-$class limit is $3.05$ and classmark.
is $2.05 - 3.05$
$\frac{2.1+3.0}{2} $
$ =\frac{5.10}{2} $
$=2.55$
In the case of frequency $3.1 - 4.0$ the lower class limit is $3.05,$ the upper class limit is $4.05$ and classmark.
is $3.05 - 4.05$
$\frac{3.1+4.0}{2} $

Question 105 Marks
Find the actual lower class limits, upper$-$class limits and the mid$-$values of the classes:$10 - 19, 20 - 29, 30 - 39$ and $40 - 49.$
Answer
$C. I.$ Exclusive $C. I.$
$10 - 19$ $9.5 - 19.5$
$20 - 39$ $19.5 - 29.5$
$30 - 39$ $29.5 - 39.5$
$40 - 49$ $39.5 - 49.5$
In case of frequency $9.5 - 19.5$ the lower class limit is $9.5$, the upper class limit is $19.5$ and mid$-$value is
$\frac{9.5+19.5}{2}=14.5$
In case of frequency $19.5 - 29.5$ the lower class limit is $19.5$, the upper class limit is $29.5$ and mid$-$value is
$\frac{19.5+29.5}{2}=24.5$
In case of frequency $29.5 - 39.5$ the lower class limit is $29.5$, the upper class limit is $39.5$ and mid$-$value is
$\frac{29.5+39.5}{2}=34.5$
In case of frequency $39.5 - 49.5$ the lower class limit is $39.5$, the upper class limit is $49.5$ and mid$-$value is
$\frac{39.5+49.5}{2}=44.5$

$0 - 10$ $||||$ $4$
$10 - 20$ $6$
$20 - 30$ $|||$ $3$
$30 - 40$ $||||$ $4$
$40 - 50$ $7$
In this frequency distribution, the marks $30$ are in the class of interval $30 - 40$ and not in $20 - 30.$
Similarly, marks $40$ are in the class of interval $40 - 50$ and not in $30 - 40.$
