Frequency Distribution Table

What is Frequency Distribution Table or FDT?

- A frequency distribution table can help you organize the data you gathered. A frequency
distribution table is a chart that summarizes values and their frequency.

Example:1
The following are the scores of the Volleyball player in the Grade 11 students.
