STEPS:
1. RANGE= HV-LV = 258-287
= 71
2. Determine (k) number of classes/intervals
k = 1 + 3.322 log n (where n is the total number of values)
k = 1 + 3.322 log 20
k = 5.32 use k = 6
3. Determine the class size or width (i)
i = RANGE/k = 71/6
i = 11.83 use i = 12
(*note that if the computed i is a whole number +1 dapat)

Whole numbers

UCB = UL + 0.5
LCB = LL - 0.5

i = UL-LL + 1

w/ 1 decimal

UCB = UL + .05
LCB = LL - 0.05

i = UL-LL+ 0.1

1 decimal = minus 0.1
