    1) The document describes how to create a frequency distribution from raw data by sorting the data, calculating the range and number of classes, and tabulating the results. 2) It provides an example of raw data from 12 to 58, sorted into 5 classes of 10 each, and calculates the frequency, relative frequency, and percentage for each class. 3) The final table shows the tabulated results of the frequency distribution across the 5 classes, with a total frequency and relative frequency that sums to 1 and percentages that sum to 100.

    Step 1: Sort Raw Data in Ascending Order

    Data: 12, 13, 17, 21, 24, 24, 26, 27, 27, 30, 32, 35, 37, 38, 41, 43, 44, 46, 53, 58

    Step 2: Find Range


    Range = Maximum value – Minimum Value

    Range = 58 - 12 = 46

    Step 3: Select Number of Classes


    We make 5 classes.
    Step 4:
    Compute Class (width)

    Class width = Range = 46 = 9.2


    Number of classes 5

    We round up 9.2 to 10.
